Isaiah 13:9-16

9Listen carefully, the day of the Lord is coming, Cruel, with wrath and raging anger, To make the land a horror [of devastation]; And He shall exterminate its sinners from it.

10For the stars of heaven and their constellations Will not flash with their light; The sun will be dark when it rises, And the moon will not shed its light.

11In this way I will punish the world for its evil And the wicked for their wickedness [their sin, their injustice, their wrongdoing]; I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud And will abase the arrogance of the tyrant.

12I will make mortal man more rare than fine gold, And mankind [scarcer] than the pure gold of Ophir.

13Therefore I will make the heavens tremble; And the earth will be shaken from its place At the wrath of the Lord of hosts In the day of His burning anger.

14And like the hunted gazelle, Or like sheep that no man gathers, Each [foreign resident] will turn [and go back] to his own people, And each one flee to his own land.

15Anyone who is found will be pierced through, And anyone who is captured will fall by the sword.

16Their children also will be smashed to pieces Before their eyes; Their houses will be looted And their wives ravished.
