Therefore shall all hands be faint, and every man's heart shall melt:

And they shall be afraid: pangs and sorrows shall take hold of them; they shall be in pain as a woman that travaileth: they shall be amazed one at another; their faces shall be as flames.

Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.

Therefore all hands will be feeble,
    and every human heart (A)will melt.
They will be dismayed:
    (B)pangs and agony will seize them;
    (C)they will be in anguish like a woman in labor.
They will look aghast at one another;
    their faces will be aflame.

Behold, (D)the day of the Lord comes,
    cruel, with wrath and fierce anger,
to make the land a desolation
    and (E)to destroy its sinners from it.
