Context
24I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
25I beheld, and, lo, no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
26I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, by his fierce anger.
27For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
28For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken I have purposed and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
29The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.
30And thou spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.
