Isaiah 24:16-22

16From the ends of the earth we hear songs of praise, of glory to the Righteous One. But I say, "I waste away, I waste away. Woe is me! For the traitors have betrayed, with betrayal the traitors have betrayed."

17Terror and the pit and the snare are upon you, O inhabitant of the earth!

18He who flees at the sound of the terror shall fall into the pit, and he who climbs out of the pit shall be caught in the snare. For the windows of heaven are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.

19The earth is utterly broken, the earth is split apart, the earth is violently shaken.

20The earth staggers like a drunken man; it sways like a hut; its transgression lies heavy upon it, and it falls, and will not rise again.

21On that day the Lord will punish the host of heaven, in heaven, and the kings of the earth, on the earth.

22They will be gathered together as prisoners in a pit; they will be shut up in a prison, and after many days they will be punished.
