- Isaiah 17:9In that day shall his strong cities be as a forsaken bough, and an uppermost branch, which they left because of the children of Israel: and there shall be desolation.In that day their strong cities will be like forsaken thickets and summits, abandoned to the Israelites and to utter desolation.
