Isaiah 13:4-12

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.
