Amos5:17

17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing, for I will pass through thee , saith the LORD.

In these places was usually the greatest jollity, and they gather'd their Vintage with joy, but now 'tis quite contrary, either Vines are blasted, or eaten up, or destroy'd of the enemy.

As an incensed God punishing all, every where, who have sinned against him, and therefore every place now shall be full of sorrow, because every place hath been full of sin.
