13:1

The burden4853 of Babylon,894 which Isaiah3470 the son1121 of Amoz531 did see.2372

13:2

Lift ye up5375 a banner5251 upon the high8192 mountain,2022 exalt7311 the voice6963 unto them, shake5130 the hand,3027 that they may go935 into the gates6607 of the nobles.5081

13:3

I have commanded6680 my sanctified ones,6942 I have also called7121 my mighty ones1368 for mine anger,639 even them that rejoice5947 in my highness.1346

13:4

The noise6963 of a multitude1995 in the mountains,2022 like as1823 of a great7227 people;5971 a tumultuous7588 noise6963 of the kingdoms4467 of nations1471 gathered622 together: Yahweh3068 of hosts6635 mustereth6485 the host6635 of the battle.4421

13:5

They come935 from a far4801 country,776 from the end7097 of heaven,8064 even Yahweh,3068 and the weapons3627 of his indignation,2195 to destroy2254 the whole land.776

13:6

Howl3213 ye; for the day3117 of Yahweh3068 is at hand;7138 it shall come935 as a destruction7701 from the Almighty.7706

Therefore shall all hands3027 be faint,7503 and every man's582 heart3824 shall melt:4549

13:8

And they shall be afraid:926 pangs6735 and sorrows2256 shall take hold of them;270 they shall be in pain2342 as a woman that travaileth:3205 they shall be amazed8539 one376 at another;7453 their faces6440 shall be as flames.3851

13:9

Behold, the day3117 of Yahweh3068 cometh,935 cruel394 both with wrath5678 and fierce2740 anger,639 to lay7760 the land776 desolate:8047 and he shall destroy8045 the sinners2400 thereof out of it.

13:10

For the stars3556 of heaven8064 and the constellations3685 thereof shall not give1984 their light:216 the sun8121 shall be darkened2821 in his going forth,3318 and the moon3394 shall not cause her light216 to shine.5050

13:11

And I will punish6485 the world8398 for their evil,7451 and the wicked7563 for their iniquity;5771 and I will cause the arrogancy1347 of the proud2086 to cease,7673 and will lay low8213 the haughtiness1346 of the terrible.6184

13:12

I will make a man582 more precious3365 than fine gold;6337 even a man120 than the golden wedge3800 of Ophir.211

13:13

Therefore I will shake7264 the heavens,8064 and the earth776 shall remove7493 out of her place,4725 in the wrath5678 of Yahweh3068 of hosts,6635 and in the day3117 of his fierce2740 anger.639

13:14

And it shall be as the chased5080 roe,6643 and as a sheep6629 that no man taketh up:6908 they shall every man376 turn6437 to his own people,5971 and flee5127 every one376 into his own land.776

13:15

Every one that is found4672 shall be thrust through;1856 and every one that is joined5595 unto them shall fall5307 by the sword.2719

13:16

Their children5768 also shall be dashed to pieces7376 before their eyes;5869 their houses1004 shall be spoiled,8155 and their wives802 ravished.7901

13:17

Behold, I will stir up5782 the Medes4074 against them, which shall not regard2803 silver;3701 and as for gold,2091 they shall not delight2654 in it.

13:18

Their bows7198 also shall dash the young men5288 to pieces;7376 and they shall have no pity7355 on the fruit6529 of the womb;990 their eye5869 shall not spare2347 children.1121

13:19

And Babylon,894 the glory6643 of kingdoms,4467 the beauty8597 of the Chaldees'3778 excellency,1347 shall be as when Elohim430 overthrew4114 Sodom5467 and Gomorrah.6017

13:20

It shall never3808 be inhabited,3427 neither shall it be dwelt7931 in from generation1755 to generation:1755 neither shall the Arabian6163 pitch tent167 there; neither shall the shepherds7462 make their fold7257 there.

13:21

But wild beasts of the desert6728 shall lie7257 there; and their houses1004 shall be full4390 of doleful creatures;255 and owls1323 shall dwell7931 there, and satyrs8163 shall dance7540 there.

13:22

And the wild beasts of the islands338 shall cry6030 in their desolate houses,490 and dragons8577 in their pleasant6027 palaces:1964 and her time6256 is near7138 to come,935 and her days3117 shall not be prolonged.4900
