It speaks of despair - of vines being dried up and fig trees withering.
The overall picture is one of dryness.
And then it says....
" Surely, the joy of mankind is withered up" (v.12)
To me, that is a great description of life without God.
The passage then goes on to call people back to God - to repentance.
TFTD: I hope "withered up" does not describe your spiritual life.
Have a great day,
Peter Clark.
