'Desolate' in the Bible
The seeds shrivel under their clods;The storehouses are desolate,The barns are torn down,For the grain is dried up.
A fire consumes before themAnd behind them a flame burns.The land is like the garden of Eden before themBut a desolate wilderness behind them,And nothing at all escapes them.
“But I will remove the northern army far from you,And I will drive it into a parched and desolate land,And its vanguard into the eastern sea,And its rear guard into the western sea.And its stench will arise and its foul smell will come up,For it has done great things.”
Egypt will become a waste,And Edom will become a desolate wilderness,Because of the violence done to the sons of Judah,In whose land they have shed innocent blood.
