24Behold, the LORD lays the earth waste, devastates it, distorts its surface, and scatters its inhabitants.H3068H776H1238H1110H5753H6440H6327H34272And the people will be like the priest, the servant like his master, the maid like her mistress, the buyer like the seller, the lender like the borrower, the creditor like the debtor.H5971H3548H5650H113H8198H1404H7069H4376H3867H3867H5383H834H53783The earth will be completely laid waste and completely despoiled, for the LORD has spoken this word.H776H1238H1238H962H962H3068H1696H16974The earth mourns [and] withers, the world fades [and] withers, the exalted of the people of the earth fade away.H776H56H5034H8398H535H5034H4791H5971H776H5355The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant.H776H2610H3427H5674H8451H2498H2706H6565H5769H12856Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live in it are held guilty. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left.H423H398H776H3427H816H3427H776H2787H4213H582H76047The new wine mourns, The vine decays, All the merry-hearted sigh.H8492H56H1612H535H8056H3820H5848The gaiety of tambourines ceases, The noise of revelers stops, The gaiety of the harp ceases.H4885H8596H7673H7588H5947H2308H4885H3658H76739They do not drink wine with song; Strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.H8354H3196H7892H7941H4843H835410The city of chaos is broken down; Every house is shut up so that none may enter.H7151H8414H7665H1004H5462H93511There is an outcry in the streets concerning the wine; All joy turns to gloom. The gaiety of the earth is banished.H6682H3196H2351H8057H6150H4885H776H154012Desolation is left in the city, And the gate is battered to ruins.H5892H7604H8047H8179H3807H759113For thus it will be in the midst of the earth among the peoples, As the shaking of an olive tree, As the gleanings when the grape harvest is over.H7130H776H8432H5971H5363H2132H5955H1210H361514They raise their voices, they shout for joy. They cry out from the west concerning the majesty of the LORD.H5375H6963H7442H1347H3068H6670H322015Therefore glorify the LORD in the east, The name of the LORD, the God of Israel In the coastlands of the sea.H3513H3068H217H8034H3068H430H3478H339H322016From the ends of the earth we hear songs, "Glory to the Righteous One," But I say, "Woe to me! Woe to me! Alas for me! The treacherous deal treacherously, And the treacherous deal very treacherously."H3671H776H8085H2158H6643H6662H559H7334H7334H188H898H898H898H899H89817Terror and pit and snare Confront you, O inhabitant of the earth.H6343H6354H6341H3427H77618Then it will be that he who flees the report of disaster will fall into the pit, And he who climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare; For the windows above are opened, and the foundations of the earth shake.H5127H6963H6343H5307H6354H5927H8432H6354H3920H6341H699H4791H6605H4146H776H749319The earth is broken asunder, The earth is split through, The earth is shaken violently.H776H7489H7489H776H6565H6565H776H4131H413120The earth reels to and fro like a drunkard, And it totters like a shack, For its transgression is heavy upon it, And it will fall, never to rise again.H776H5128H5128H7910H5110H4412H6588H3513H5307H6965H325421So it will happen in that day, That the LORD will punish the host of heaven, on high, And the kings of the earth, on earth.H3117H3068H6485H6635H4791H4791H4428H127H12722And they will be gathered together [Like] prisoners in the dungeon, And will be confined in prison; And after many days they will be punished.H622H616H626H953H5462H4525H7230H3117H648523Then the moon will be abashed and the sun ashamed, For the LORD of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, And [His] glory will be before His elders.H3842H2659H2535H954H3068H6635H4427H2022H6726H3389H2205H3519
