Isaiah 24:16-18

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁶ From the ends of the earth we have heard praises, the glory of the just one. And I said: My secret to myself, my secret to myself, woe is me: the prevaricators have prevaricated, and with the prevarication of transgressors they have prevaricated.

¹⁷ Fear, and the pit, and the snare are upon thee, O thou inhabitant of the earth.

¹⁸ And it shall come to pass, that he that shall flee from the noise of the fear, shall fall into the pit: and he that shall rid himself out of the pit, shall be taken in the snare: for the flood-gates from on high are opened, and the foundations of the earth shall be shaken.
