Isaiah 24:16-20
16From the 1ends of the earth we hear songs: “2Glory to the Righteous One,” But I say, “3I am finished! I am finished! Woe to me! The 4treacherous deal treacherously, And the treacherous deal very treacherously.”175Terror and pit and snare 6Confront you, you inhabitant of the earth.18Then it will be that the one who flees the sound of terror will fall into the pit, And the one who 7climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare; For the 8windows 9above are opened, and the 10foundations of the earth shake.1911The earth is broken apart, The earth is 12split through, The earth is shaken violently.20The earth 13trembles like a heavy drinker And sways like a hut, For its 14wrongdoing is heavy upon it, And it will fall, 15never to rise again.
