12AndH1961 at thatH1931 timeH6256 I will searchH2664 JerusalemH3389 with lampsH5216 and punishH6485 the menH582 settledH7087 inH5921 complacencyH8105,1 who sayH559 to themselvesH3824, ‘The LORDH3068 H3808 will do nothingH3808, either goodH3190 or badH7489.’13Their wealthH2428 will beH1961 plunderedH4933 and their housesH1004 laid wasteH8077. They will buildH1129 housesH1004 but notH3808 inhabitH3427 them, and plantH5193 vineyardsH3754 but neverH3808 drinkH8354 their wineH3196.

14The greatH1419 DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is nearH7138—nearH7138 and comingH4118 quicklyH3966.ListenH6963, the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068!ThenH8033 the cryH6873 of the mightyH1368 will be bitterH4751.15ThatH1931 day will beH3117a dayH3117 of wrathH5678,a dayH3117 of troubleH6869 and distressH4691,a dayH3117 of destructionH7722 and desolationH4875,a dayH3117 of darknessH2822 and gloomH653,a dayH3117 of cloudsH6051 and blacknessH6205,16a dayH3117 of hornH7782 blast and battle cryH8643againstH5921 the fortifiedH1219 citiesH5892,and againstH5921 the highH1364 corner towersH6438.17I will bring such distressH6887 on mankindH120that they will walkH1980 like the blindH5787,becauseH3588 they have sinnedH2398 against the LORDH3068.Their bloodH1818 will be poured outH8210 like dustH6083and their fleshH3894 like dungH1557.18Neither their silverH3701 H1571 norH1571 their goldH2091 will be ableH3201 to deliver themH5337on the DayH3117 of the LORD’sH3068 wrathH5678.The wholeH3605 earthH776 will be consumedH398by the fireH784 of His jealousyH7068.”

ForH3588 indeedH389, He will makeH6213 a suddenH926 endH3617ofH854 allH3605 who dwellH3427 on the earthH776.2
