And the earth will move out of her place,
In the wrath of the Lord of hosts
And in bthe day of His fierce anger.
And as a sheep that no man1 takes up;
aEvery man will turn to his own people,
And everyone will flee to his own land.
And everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
Their houses will be plundered
And their wives bravished.
Who will not1 regard silver;
And as for gold, they will not delight in it.
And they will have no pity on the fruit of the womb;
Their eye will not spare children.
The beauty of the Chaldeans’ pride,
Will be as when God overthrew bSodom and Gomorrah.
Nor will it be settled from generation to generation;
Nor will the Arabian pitch tents there,
Nor will the shepherds make their sheepfolds there.
| << Isaiah 13:13 | Isaiah 13:15 >> |
