Isaiah 13:6-14

6Wail, for the day of the Lord is near; it will come like destruction from the Almighty.

7Because of this, all hands will go limp, every heart will melt with fear.

8Terror will seize them, pain and anguish will grip them; they will writhe like a woman in labor. They will look aghast at each other, their faces aflame.

9See, the day of the Lord is coming —a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger— to make the land desolate and destroy the sinners within it.

10The stars of heaven and their constellations will not show their light. The rising sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light.

11I will punish the world for its evil, the wicked for their sins. I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty and will humble the pride of the ruthless.

12I will make people scarcer than pure gold, more rare than the gold of Ophir.

13Therefore I will make the heavens tremble; and the earth will shake from its place at the wrath of the Lord Almighty, in the day of his burning anger.

14Like a hunted gazelle, like sheep without a shepherd, they will all return to their own people, they will flee to their native land.
