Isaiah 17:4

Isa 17:4 And in that day it shall come to pass, [that] the glory of Jacob shall be made thin, and the fatness of his flesh shall wax lean.

Ver. 4. The glory of Jacob shall be made thin. ] Their multitudes wherein they gloried shall be greatly impaired.

And the fatness. ] He shall be cast into a deadly consumption, know the consumption of a kingdom is poverty, and the death of it is loss of authority, saith Scultetus, wickedness being the root of its wretchedness, like as the causes of diseases are in the body itself.
