11 The Lord says, “I will punish the world for its evil
    and wicked people for their sins.
I will cause proud people to lose their pride,
    and I will destroy the pride of those who are cruel to others.
12 People will be harder to find than pure gold;
    there will be fewer people than there is fine gold in Ophir.
13 I will make the sky shake,
    and the earth will be moved from its place
by the anger of the Lord All-Powerful
    at the time of his burning anger.
