Isaiah 13

1The burdenH4853 of BabylonH894, whichH834 IsaiahH3470 the sonH1121 of AmozH531 didH834 seeH2372. 2SetH935 ye upH5375 an ensign uponH5921 the bareH8192 mountainH2022, liftH5375 upH5375 the voiceH6963 unto them, waveH5130 the handH3027, that they may goH935 intoH935 the gatesH6607 of the noblesH5081. 3I have commandedH6680 my consecratedH6942 onesH1368, yea, I have calledH7121 my mightyH1368 menH1368 for mine angerH639, evenH1571 my proudlyH1346 exultingH5947 onesH1368. 4The noiseH6963 of a multitudeH1995 in the mountainsH2022, like as of a greatH7227 peopleH5971! the noiseH6963 of a tumultH1995 of the kingdomsH4467 of the nationsH1471 gatheredH622 togetherH622! the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635 mustereth the hostH6635 for the battleH4421. 5They comeH935 from a farH4801 countryH776, from the uttermost part of heavenH8064, evenH776 the LORDH3068, and the weaponsH3627 of his indignationH2195, to destroyH3605 the wholeH3605 landH776. 6HowlH3213 ye; for the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is at handH7138; as destructionH7701 from the AlmightyH7706 shall it comeH935. 7Therefore shall allH3605 handsH3027 be feebleH7503, and everyH3605 heartH3824 of manH582 shall meltH4549: 8and they shall be dismayedH926; pangs and sorrows shall takeH270 holdH270 of them; they shall be in pain as a woman in travail: they shall be amazedH8539 one at anotherH7453; their facesH6440 shall be facesH6440 of flameH3851. 9BeholdH2009, the dayH3117 of the LORDH3068 cometh, cruelH394, with wrathH5678 and fierceH2740 angerH639; to makeH7760 the landH776 a desolationH8047, and to destroyH8045 the sinnersH2400 thereof outH4480 of it. 10For the starsH3556 of heavenH8064 and the constellationsH3685 thereof shall notH3808 give their lightH216: the sunH8121 shall be darkenedH2821 in his goingH3318 forthH3318, and the moonH3394 shall notH3808 cause herH3588 lightH216 to shineH5050. 11And I will punishH6485 the worldH8398 for their evilH7451, and the wickedH7563 for their iniquityH5771; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proudH2086 to ceaseH7673, and will layH8213 lowH8213 the haughtinessH1346 of the terribleH7451. 12I will makeH3365 a manH120 more rare than fineH6337 goldH3800, even a manH120 than the pureH6337 goldH3800 of OphirH211. 13Therefore I will make the heavensH8064 to trembleH7264, and the earthH776 shall be shakenH7493 outH5921 of herH5921 placeH4725, in the wrathH5678 of the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, and in the dayH3117 of his fierceH2740 angerH639. 14And it shall comeH1961 to passH1961, that as the chased roe, and as sheepH6629 that noH369 manH376 gathereth, they shall turnH6437 everyH376 manH376 to his ownH1961 peopleH5971, and shall fleeH5127 everyH376 manH376 to his ownH1961 landH776. 15EveryH3605 one that is foundH4672 shall be thrustH1856 throughH1856; and everyH3605 one that is takenH4672 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719. 16Their infantsH5768 also shall be dashedH7376 in piecesH7376 beforeH5869 their eyesH5869; their housesH1004 shall be spoiled, and their wivesH802 ravishedH7693. 17BeholdH2005, I will stirH5782 upH5921 the MedesH4074 againstH5921 them, whichH834 shall notH3808 regardH5921 silverH3701, and as for goldH2091, they shall notH3808 delightH2654 in it. 18And their bowsH7198 shall dashH7376 the youngH5288 menH5288 in piecesH7376; and they shall have noH3808 pityH2347 on the fruitH6529 of the wombH990; their eyeH5869 shall notH3808 spareH2347 childrenH1121. 19And BabylonH894, the gloryH8597 of kingdomsH4467, the beautyH8597 of the Chaldeans’H3778 prideH1347, shall be as when GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017. 20It shall neverH3808 be inhabitedH3427, neitherH3808 shall it be dweltH3427 in from generationH1755 to generationH1755: neitherH3808 shall the Arabian pitchH167 tentH167 there; neitherH3808 shall shepherdsH7462 make their flocks to lieH7257 downH3427 there. 21But wild beasts of the desert shall lieH7257 there; and their housesH1004 shall be fullH4390 of doleful creatures; and ostrichesH3284 shall dwellH7931 there, and satyrs shall danceH7540 there. 22And wolvesH338 shall cry in their castles, and jackalsH8577 in the pleasant palacesH1964: and herH935 time is nearH7138 to comeH935, and herH935 daysH3117 shall notH3808 be prolongedH4900.
