Isaiah 13:6-11 - ESV Online

ISAIAH 13:6-11

Wail, for the day of the Lord is near;

as destruction from the Almighty it will come! 7

Therefore all hands will be feeble,

and every human heart will melt. 8

They will be dismayed:

pangs and agony will seize them;

they will be in anguish like a woman in labor.

They will look aghast at one another;

their faces will be aflame.
9

Behold, the day of the Lord comes,

cruel, with wrath and fierce anger,

to make the land a desolation

and to destroy its sinners from it. 10

For the stars of the heavens and their constellations

will not give their light;

the sun will be dark at its rising,

and the moon will not shed its light. 11

I will punish the world for its evil,

and the wicked for their iniquity;

I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant,

and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless.
