The Day of the Lord’s Wrath

Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying: And you, son of man, thus says the Lord God to the land of Israel:

An end, the end is coming
    upon the four corners of the land.
Now the end has come upon you,
    and I will send My anger upon you,
and will judge you according to your ways,
    and will recompense upon you all your abominations.
My eye shall not spare you,
    nor will I have pity;
but I will recompense your ways upon you,
    and your abominations shall be in your midst.

And you shall know that I am the Lord!

Thus says the Lord God:

A disaster, a singular disaster;
    it is coming!
An end is coming,
    the end has come;
it watches for you;
    it has come!
Your doom has come to you,
    O inhabitant in the land;
the time has come, the day of trouble is near,
    and not the joyful shouting on the mountains.
Now I will shortly pour out My fury upon you,
    and accomplish My anger upon you;
and I will judge you according to your ways,
    and will recompense you for all your abominations.
My eye shall not spare,
    nor will I have pity;
I will recompense you according to your ways,
    and your abominations that are in your midst.

And you shall know that I am the Lord who strikes.

10 The day is coming!
    Your doom has gone out;
the rod has blossomed,
    pride has budded.
11 Violence has risen up
    into a rod of wickedness;
none of them shall remain,
    none of their people,
none of their wealth,
    nor anything eminent among them.
12 The time has come,
    the day has drawn near.
Do not let the buyer rejoice,
    or the seller mourn,
    for wrath is against all their multitude.
13 For the seller shall not return
    to that which is sold,
    although they both live;
for the vision concerning the whole multitude
    shall not return;
nor shall any strengthen his life
    by his iniquity.

Moreover the word of the Lord came unto me, saying,

“Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord God unto the land of Israel: “An end! The end is come upon the four corners of the land.

Now is the end come upon thee, and I will send Mine anger upon thee, and will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense upon thee all thine abominations.

And Mine eye shall not spare thee, neither will I have pity; but I will recompense thy ways upon thee, and thine abominations shall be in the midst of thee; and ye shall know that I am the Lord.

“Thus saith the Lord God: An evil, an only evil, behold, is come!

An end is come, the end is come! It watcheth for thee; behold, it is come.

The morning is come unto thee, O thou that dwellest in the land; the time is come, the day of trouble is near, and not the sounding again of the mountains.

Now will I shortly pour out My fury upon thee, and accomplish Mine anger upon thee; and I will judge thee according to thy ways, and will recompense thee for all thine abominations.

And Mine eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity. I will recompense thee according to thy ways and thine abominations that are in the midst of thee; and ye shall know that I am the Lord that smiteth.

10 “Behold the day, behold, it is come! The morning is gone forth, the rod hath blossomed, pride hath budded.

11 Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness; none of them shall remain, nor of their multitude, nor of any of theirs; neither shall there be wailing for them.

12 The time is come, the day draweth near. Let not the buyer rejoice nor the seller mourn, for wrath is upon all the multitude thereof.

13 For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive; for the vision is touching the whole multitude thereof, which shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.
