24 With arrows and with bows shall men come thither, because all the land shall become briers and thorns.

25 And all hills that shall be digged with the mattock, there shall not come thither the fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and the treading of lesser cattle.

Briers and Thorns

This whole territory would be used by hunters, who would come among the briars and bushes with bows and arrows to seek game.

The luxurious, terraced hills, which were so carefully cultivated and weeded to keep out thorns and briars, would no longer be used for the vine or the tree. These hills would all be occupied by oxen, sheep, and goats.

W. Cleon Skousen, Isaiah Speaks to Modern Times [salt Lake City: Ensign Publishing Co., 1984], 207
