Isaiah 13:6-9

New International Version

⁶ Wail,^(A) for the day^(B) of the Lord is near;
    it will come like destruction^(C) from the Almighty.^[a](D)
7 Because of this, all hands will go limp,^(E)
    every heart will melt with fear.^(F)
8 Terror^(G) will seize them,
    pain and anguish will grip^(H) them;
    they will writhe like a woman in labor.^(I)
They will look aghast at each other,
    their faces aflame.^(J)

⁹ See, the day^(K) of the Lord is coming
    —a cruel^(L) day, with wrath^(M) and fierce anger^(N)—
to make the land desolate
    and destroy the sinners within it.
