Isaiah 13:4-13

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.
