Isaiah17:11
Ver. 11. In the day thou ſhalt make thy plant to grow] So Prov. 22.8. he that ſoweth inquity ſhall reap vanity: and the more ſerious and ſedulous he is at it, the worſe ſhall it be with him, Gal. 6.8.
But thy harveſt ſhall be an heap] This is a Proverb among the Jews, to ſignifie labour in vain.
In the day of grief and deſperate ſorrow] Heb. aegrae, ſc. plagae: for grapes ye ſhall gather thorns, for figs thiſtles.
