Isaiah 7:23-25
International Standard Version
23 “At that time,[a] every place where once there were a thousand vines worth a thousand shekels[b] of silver, only briars and thorns will grow.
24 “People will come there armed with bows[c] and arrows, because the entire land will be nothing but briers and thorns. 25 As for all the hills that used to be cultivated with a hoe, you won’t go there, because you’ll fear iron[d] briars and thorns. Nevertheless, those hills[e] will be reserved as a pasture where cattle will feed and where sheep will graze.”[f]
