Isaiah 13

1The burden^H4853 of Babylon^H894, which Isaiah^H3470 the son^H1121 of Amoz^H531 did see^H2372. 2Set ye up^H5375 an ensign^H5251 upon the bare^H8192 mountain^H2022, lift up^H7311 the voice^H6963 unto them, wave^H5130 the hand^H3027, that they may go^H935 into the gates^H6607 of the nobles^H5081. 3I have commanded^H6680 my consecrated ones^H6942, yea, I have called^H7121 my mighty men^H1368 for mine anger^H639, even my proudly^H1346 exulting^H5947 ones. 4The noise^H6963 of a multitude^H1995 in the mountains^H2022, as^H1823 of a great^H7227 people^H5971! the noise^H6963 of a tumult^H6963 of the kingdoms^H4467 of the nations^H1471 gathered together^H622! Jehovah^H3068 of hosts^H6635 is mustering^H6485 the host^H6635 for the battle^H4421. 5They come^H935 from a far^H4801 country^H776, from the uttermost^H7097 part of heaven^H8064, even Jehovah^H3068, and the weapons^H3627 of his indignation^H2195, to destroy^H2254 the whole land^H776. 6Wail^H3213 ye; for the day^H3117 of Jehovah^H3068 is at hand^H7138; as destruction^H7701 from the Almighty^H7706 shall it come^H935. 7Therefore shall all hands^H3027 be feeble^H7503, and every heart^H3824 of man^H582 shall melt^H4549: 8and they shall be dismayed^H926; pangs^H6735 and sorrows^H2256 shall take hold^H270 of them; they shall be in pain^H2342 as a woman in travail^H2342: they shall look in amazement^H8539 one^H376 at another^H7453; their faces^H6440 shall be faces^H6440 of flame. 9Behold, the day^H3117 of Jehovah^H3068 cometh^H935, cruel^H394, with wrath^H5678 and fierce^H2740 anger^H639; to make^H7760 the land^H776 a desolation^H8047, and to destroy^H8045 the sinners^H2400 thereof out of it. 10For the stars^H3556 of heaven^H8064 and the constellations^H3685 thereof shall not give^H1984 their light^H216; the sun^H8121 shall be darkened^H2821 in its going forth^H3318, and the moon^H3394 shall not cause its light^H216 to shine^H5050. 11And I will punish^H6485 the world^H8398 for their evil^H7451, and the wicked^H7563 for their iniquity^H5771: and I will cause the arrogancy^H1347 of the proud^H2086 to cease^H7673, and will lay low^H8213 the haughtiness^H1346 of the terrible^H6184. 12I will make a man^H582 more rare^H3365 than fine gold^H6337, even a man^H120 than the pure gold^H3800 of Ophir^H211. 13Therefore I will make the heavens^H8064 to tremble^H7264, and the earth^H776 shall be shaken^H7493 out of its place^H4725, in the wrath^H5678 of Jehovah^H3068 of hosts^H6635, and in the day^H3117 of his fierce^H2740 anger^H639. 14And it shall come to pass, that as the chased^H5080 roe^H6643, and as sheep^H6629 that no man^H376 gathereth^H6908, they shall turn^H6437 every man^H376 to his own people^H5971, and shall flee^H5127 every man to his own land^H776. 15Every one that is found^H4672 shall be thrust through^H1856; and every one that is taken^H5595 shall fall^H5307 by the sword^H2719. 16Their infants^H5768 also shall be dashed in pieces^H7376 before their eyes^H5869; their houses^H1004 shall be rifled^H8155, and their wives^H802 ravished^H7901. 17Behold, I will stir up^H5782 the Medes^H4074 against them, who shall not regard^H2803 silver^H3701, and as for gold^H2091, they shall not delight^H2654 in it. 18And their bows^H7198 shall dash^H7376 the young men^H5288 in pieces^H7376; and they shall have no pity^H7355 on the fruit^H6529 of the womb^H990; their eye^H5869 shall not spare^H2347 children^H1121. 19And Babylon^H894, the glory^H6643 of kingdoms^H4467, the beauty^H8597 of the Chaldeans^H3778' pride^H1347, shall be as when God^H430 overthrew^H4114 Sodom^H5467 and Gomorrah^H6017. 20It shall never^H5331 be inhabited^H3427, neither shall it be dwelt^H7931 in from generation^H1755 to generation^H1755: neither shall the Arabian^H6163 pitch tent^H167 there; neither shall shepherds^H7462 make their flocks to lie down^H7257 there. 21But wild beasts of the desert^H6728 shall lie^H7257 there; and their houses^H1004 shall be full^H4390 of doleful creatures^H255; and ostriches^H1323 shall dwell^H7931 there, and wild goats^H8163 shall dance^H7540 there. 22And wolves^H338 shall cry^H6030 in their castles^H490, and jackals^H8577 in the pleasant^H6027 palaces^H1964: and her time^H6256 is near^H7138 to come^H935, and her days^H3117 shall not be prolonged^H4900.
