Isaiah 19:8 in Context — Isaiah 19

6 Y alejaránse los ríos, se agotarán y secarán las corrientes de los fosos: la caña y el carrizo serán cortados.

7 Las verduras de junto al río, de junto á la ribera del río, y toda sementera del río, se secarán, se perderán, y no serán.

8 Los pescadores también se entristecerán; y harán duelo todos los que echan anzuelo en el río, y desfallecerán los que extienden red sobre las aguas.

9 Los que labran lino fino, y los que tejen redes, serán confundidos;

10 Porque todas sus redes serán rotas: y se entristecerán todos los que hacen viveros para peces.
