Isaiah 17:11

Isaiah 17:11 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

11though on the day you set them out, you make them grow,

and on the morning when you plant them, you bring them to bud,

yet the harvest will be as nothing

in the day of disease and incurable pain.

11On the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in,

And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom;

But the harvest will flee

On a day of illness and incurable pain.

11In the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in,

And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom;

But the harvest will be a heap

In a day of sickliness and incurable pain.

11In the day that you plant it you carefully fence it in,

And in the morning you bring your seed to blossom;

Yet [promising as it is] the harvest will be a heap [of ruins that passes away]

In the day of sickness and incurable pain.

11though on the day you plant

you make them grow,

and on that morning

you help your seed sprout —

yet the harvest will vanish

on the day of disease and incurable pain.

11The plants might start to grow on the day you set them out.

The vines might begin to bud on the morning you plant them.

But even if they do, there won’t be any harvest.

Instead, there will be sickness and pain that won’t go away.
