Wail,(A) for the day(B) of the Lord is near;
    it will come like destruction(C) from the Almighty.[a](D)
Because of this, all hands will go limp,(E)
    every heart will melt with fear.(F)
Terror(G) will seize them,
    pain and anguish will grip(H) them;
    they will writhe like a woman in labor.(I)
They will look aghast at each other,
    their faces aflame.(J)

See, the day(K) of the Lord is coming
    —a cruel(L) day, with wrath(M) and fierce anger(N)
to make the land desolate
    and destroy the sinners within it.
