aPangs1 and sorrows will take hold of them;
They will be in pain as a woman in childbirth;
They will be amazed at one another;
Their faces will be like flames.
Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger,
To lay the land desolate;
And He will destroy bits sinners from it.
Will not give their light;
The sun will be adarkened in its going forth,
And the moon will not cause its light to shine.
And the wicked for their iniquity;
bI will halt the arrogance of the proud,
And will lay low the haughtiness of the1 terrible.
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.
