³⁵ All the days while it is waste will the land have rest, such rest as it never had in your Sabbaths, when you were living in it.

⁵ The earth has been made unclean by those living in it; because the laws have not been kept by them, the orders have been changed, and the eternal agreement has been broken.

⁶ For this cause the earth is given up to the curse, and those in it are judged as sinners: for this cause those living on the earth are burned up, and the rest are small in number.

²² For we are conscious that all living things are weeping and sorrowing in pain together till now.
