8 And it shall come to pass in all the land,”
Says the Lord,
“That (A)two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die,

Will (D)refine them as silver is refined,
And test them as gold is tested.
(E)They will call on My name,
And I will answer them.
(F)I will say, ‘This is My people’;
And each one will say, ‘The Lord is my God.’ ”

The Destruction of Israel
9 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and He said:
“Strike the [a]doorposts, that the thresholds may shake,
And (A)break them on the heads of them all.
I will slay the last of them with the sword.
(B)He who flees from them shall not get away,
And he who escapes from them shall not be delivered.
2 “Though(C) they dig into [b]hell,
From there My hand shall take them;
(D)Though they climb up to heaven,
From there I will bring them down;
3 And though they (E)hide themselves on top of Carmel,
From there I will search and take them;
Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea,
From there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them;
4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies,
From there (F)I will command the sword,
And it shall slay them.
(G)I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good.”
Job 39:29-30

30 Its young ones suck up blood;
And (A)where the slain are, there it is.”

Daniel 9:26-27
New King James Version
26 “And after the sixty-two weeks
(A)Messiah shall [a]be cut off, (B)but not for Himself;
And (C)the people of the prince who is to come
(D)Shall destroy the city and the sanctuary.
The end of it shall be with a flood,
And till the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 Then he shall confirm (E)a [b]covenant with (F)many for one week;
But in the middle of the week
He shall bring an end to sacrifice and offering.
And on the wing of abominations shall be one who makes desolate,
(G)Even until the consummation, which is determined,
Is poured out on the [c]desolate.”
