Isaiah 26:20-21
Amplified Bible
20
Come, my people, enter your chambers
And shut your doors behind you;
Hide for a little while
Until the [Lord’s] [a]wrath is past.
21
Listen carefully, the Lord is about to come out of His [heavenly] place
To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their wickedness [their sin, their injustice, their wrongdoing];
The earth will reveal the [innocent] blood shed upon her
And will no longer cover her slain.

Isaiah 34:1-4
Amplified Bible
God’s Wrath against Nations
34 Come near, you nations, to hear; and listen, O peoples!
Let the earth and all that is in it hear, and the world and all that comes forth from it.
2
For the Lord is angry at all the nations,
And His wrath is against all their armies;
He has [a]utterly doomed them,
He has given them over to slaughter.
3
So their slain will be thrown out,
And the stench of their corpses will rise,
And the mountains will flow with their blood.
4
All the host of heaven will be dissolved,
And the skies will be rolled up like a scroll;
All their hosts [the stars and the planets] will also wither away
As a leaf withers from the vine,
And as a fig withers from the fig tree.(A)
