Isaiah 24:7

Context

24:7 The new wine dries up,

the vines shrivel up,

all those who like to celebrate 1  groan.

Isaiah 40:8

Context

40:8 The grass dries up,

the flowers wither,

but the decree of our God is forever reliable.” 2 

1 tn The Hebrew text reads literally, “all the joyful in heart,” but the context specifies the context as parties and drinking bouts.

2 tn Heb “but the word of our God stands forever.” In this context the divine “word” specifically refers to his decreed promise assuring Jerusalem that her suffering is over and his glorious return imminent (vv. 1-5).
