Isaiah 24:1-6
New International Version
The Lord’s Devastation of the Earth
24 See, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth(A)
and devastate(B) it;
he will ruin its face
and scatter(C) its inhabitants—
2 it will be the same
for priest as for people,(D)
for the master as for his servant,
for the mistress as for her servant,
for seller as for buyer,(E)
for borrower as for lender,
for debtor as for creditor.(F)
3 The earth will be completely laid waste(G)
and totally plundered.(H)
The Lord has spoken(I) this word.
4 The earth dries up(J) and withers,(K)
the world languishes and withers,
the heavens(L) languish with the earth.(M)
5 The earth is defiled(N) by its people;
they have disobeyed(O) the laws,
violated the statutes
and broken the everlasting covenant.(P)
6 Therefore a curse(Q) consumes the earth;
its people must bear their guilt.
Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up,(R)
and very few are left.
Jeremiah 25:27-33
New International Version
27 “Then tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, says: Drink, get drunk(A) and vomit, and fall to rise no more because of the sword(B) I will send among you.’ 28 But if they refuse to take the cup from your hand and drink(C), tell them, ‘This is what the Lord Almighty says: You must drink it! 29 See, I am beginning to bring disaster(D) on the city that bears my Name,(E) and will you indeed go unpunished?(F) You will not go unpunished, for I am calling down a sword(G) on all(H) who live on the earth,(I) declares the Lord Almighty.’
30 “Now prophesy all these words against them and say to them:
“‘The Lord will roar(J) from on high;
he will thunder(K) from his holy dwelling(L)
and roar mightily against his land.
He will shout like those who tread(M) the grapes,
shout against all who live on the earth.
31 The tumult(N) will resound to the ends of the earth,
for the Lord will bring charges(O) against the nations;
he will bring judgment(P) on all(Q) mankind
and put the wicked to the sword,(R)’”
declares the Lord.
32 This is what the Lord Almighty says:
“Look! Disaster(S) is spreading
from nation to nation;(T)
a mighty storm(U) is rising
from the ends of the earth.”(V)
33 At that time those slain(W) by the Lord will be everywhere—from one end of the earth to the other. They will not be mourned or gathered(X) up or buried,(Y) but will be like dung lying on the ground.
Zephaniah 3:8
New International Version
Malachi 4:1-2

Judgment and Covenant Renewal
4 [a]“Surely the day is coming;(A) it will burn like a furnace.(B) All the arrogant(C) and every evildoer will be stubble,(D) and the day that is coming will set them on fire,(E)” says the Lord Almighty. “Not a root or a branch(F) will be left to them. 2 But for you who revere my name,(G) the sun of righteousness(H) will rise with healing(I) in its rays. And you will go out and frolic(J) like well-fed calves.
