Isaiah 24:16-22

16From the ends of the earth we have heard songs: “Glory to the righteous!” But I said, “I am ruined, ruined! Woe to me! The treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously, Indeed, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.”

17Fear and the pit and the snare Are upon you, O inhabitant of the earth.

18And it shall be That he who flees from the noise of the fear Shall fall into the pit, And he who comes up from the midst of the pit Shall be caught in the snare; For the windows from on high are open, And the foundations of the earth are shaken.

19The earth is violently broken, The earth is split open, The earth is shaken exceedingly.

20The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, And shall totter like a hut; Its transgression shall be heavy upon it, And it will fall, and not rise again.

21It shall come to pass in that day That the Lord will punish on high the host of exalted ones, And on the earth the kings of the earth.

22They will be gathered together, As prisoners are gathered in the pit, And will be shut up in the prison; After many days they will be punished.
