Jesaja 24:7

7 De most treurt, de wijnstok kweelt, allen die blijhartig waren, zuchten.

Jesaja 24:7 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 24:7

The new wine mourneth
For want men to drink it, or because spilled by the enemy; or the inhabitants of the land mourn for want of it, not having their vintages as usual: the vine languisheth;
or is sickly, and so barren and unfruitful, does not bring forth its clusters of grapes as it used to do; there being none to prune it, and take care of it, and being trodden down by hostile forces. The Targum is,

``all that drink wine shall mourn, because the vines are broken down.''

So the Romish harlot, and those that have drank of the wine of her fornication, and have lived deliciously, shall have, in one hour, death, and mourning, and famine, ( Revelation 18:7 Revelation 18:8 ) : all the merryhearted do sigh;
such, whose hearts wine has formerly made glad, shall now sigh for want of it; and such who have lived deliciously with the whore of Rome, and have had many a merry bout with her, shall now bewail her, and lament for her, when she shall be utterly burnt with fire, ( Revelation 18:9 ) .

Jesaja 24:7 In-Context

5 Want het land is bevlekt vanwege zijn inwoners; want zij overtreden de wetten, zij veranderen de inzettingen, zij vernietigen het eeuwig verbond.

6 Daarom verteert de vloek het land, en die daarin wonen, zullen verwoest worden; daarom zullen de inwoners des lands verbrand worden, en er zullen weinig mensen overblijven.

7 De most treurt, de wijnstok kweelt, allen die blijhartig waren, zuchten.

8 De vreugde der trommelen rust; het geluid der vrolijk huppelenden houdt op, de vreugde der harp rust.

9 Zij zullen geen wijn drinken met gezang; de sterke drank zal bitter zijn dengenen, die hem drinken.
