Isaiah 13:4-12

4ListenH6963, a tumultH1995 on the mountainsH2022, like thatH1823 of a greatH7227 multitudeH5971! ListenH6963, an uproarH7588 among the kingdomsH4467, like nationsH1471 gathered togetherH622! The LORDH3068 of HostsH6635 is mobilizingH6485 an armyH6635 for warH4421.5They are comingH935 from farawayH4801 landsH776, from the endsH7097 of the heavensH8064— the LORDH3068 and the weaponsH3627 of His wrathH2195— to destroyH2254 the wholeH3605 countryH776.

6WailH3213, forH3588 the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138;it will comeH935 as destructionH7701 from the AlmightyH7706.17ThereforeH5921 H3651 allH3605 handsH3027 will fall limpH7503,and everyH3605 man’sH582 heartH3824 will meltH4549.8TerrorH926, painH6735, and anguishH2256 will seize themH270;they will writheH2342 like a woman in laborH3205.They will look atH413 oneH376 anotherH7453,their facesH6440 flushedH3851 H6440 with fearH8539.

9BeholdH2009, the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is comingH935—cruelH394, with furyH5678 and burning angerH2740 H639—to makeH7760 the earthH776 a desolationH8047and to destroyH8045 the sinnersH2400 within itH4480.10ForH3588 the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 and their constellationsH3685will notH3808 giveH1984 their lightH216.The risingH3318 sunH8121 will be darkenedH2821,and the moonH3394 will notH3808 giveH5050 its lightH216.11I will punishH6485 the worldH8398 for its evilH7451andH5921 the wickedH7563 for their iniquityH5771.I will endH7673 the haughtinessH1347 of the arrogantH2086and lay lowH8213 the prideH1346 of the ruthlessH6184.12I will make manH582 scarcerH3365 than pure goldH6337,and mankindH120 rarer than the goldH3800 of OphirH211.
