Behold, Jehovah{H3068} maketh the earth{H776} empty,{H1238} and maketh it waste,{H1110} and turneth{H5753} it upside down,{H6440} and scattereth abroad{H6327} the inhabitants{H3427} thereof.

And it shall be, as with the people,{H5971} so with the priest;{H3548} as with the servant,{H5650} so with his master;{H113} as with the maid,{H8198} so with her mistress;{H1404} as with the buyer,{H7069} so with the seller;{H4376} as with the creditor,{H3867} so with the debtor;{H3867} as with the taker of interest,{H5383} so{H834} with the giver of interest{H5378} to him.

The earth{H776} shall be utterly{H1238} emptied,{H1238} and utterly{H962} laid waste;{H962} for Jehovah{H3068} hath spoken{H1696} this word.{H1697}

The earth{H776} mourneth{H56} and fadeth away,{H5034} the world{H8398} languisheth{H535} and fadeth away,{H5034} the lofty{H4791} people{H5971} of the earth{H776} do languish.{H535}

The earth{H776} also is polluted{H2610} under the inhabitants{H3427} thereof; because they have transgressed{H5674} the laws,{H8451} violated{H2498} the statutes,{H2706} broken{H6565} the everlasting{H5769} covenant.{H1285}

Therefore hath the curse{H423} devoured{H398} the earth,{H776} and they that dwell{H3427} therein are found guilty:{H816} therefore the inhabitants{H3427} of the earth{H776} are burned,{H2787} and few{H4213} men{H582} left.{H7604}

The new wine{H8492} mourneth,{H56} the vine{H1612} languisheth,{H535} all the merry-hearted{H8056} do sigh.{H584}

The mirth{H4885} of tabrets{H8596} ceaseth,{H7673} the noise{H7588} of them that rejoice{H5947} endeth,{H2308} the joy{H4885} of the harp{H3658} ceaseth.{H7673}

They shall not drink{H8354} wine{H3196} with a song;{H7892} strong drink{H7941} shall be bitter{H4843} to them that drink{H8354} it.

The waste{H8414} city{H7151} is broken down;{H7665} every house{H1004} is shut up,{H5462} that no man may come in.{H935}

There is a crying{H6682} in the streets{H2351} because of the wine;{H3196} all joy{H8057} is darkened,{H6150} the mirth{H4885} of the land{H776} is gone.{H1540}

In the city{H5892} is left{H7604} desolation,{H8047} and the gate{H8179} is smitten{H3807} with destruction.{H7591}

For thus shall it be in the midst{H7130} of the earth{H776} among{H8432} the peoples,{H5971} as the shaking{H5363} of an olive-tree,{H2132} as the gleanings{H5955} when the vintage{H1210} is done.{H3615}

These shall lift up{H5375} their voice,{H6963} they shall shout;{H7442} for the majesty{H1347} of Jehovah{H3068} they cry aloud{H6670} from the sea.{H3220}

Wherefore glorify{H3513} ye Jehovah{H3068} in the east,{H217} even the name{H8034} of Jehovah,{H3068} the God{H430} of Israel,{H3478} in the isles{H339} of the sea.{H3220}

From the uttermost part{H3671} of the earth{H776} have we heard{H8085} songs:{H2158} Glory{H6643} to the righteous.{H6662} But I said,{H559} I pine{H7334} away, I pine{H7334} away, woe{H188} is me! the treacherous{H898} have dealt treacherously;{H898} yea, the treacherous{H898} have dealt very{H899} treacherously.{H898}

Fear,{H6343} and the pit,{H6354} and the snare,{H6341} are upon thee, O inhabitant{H3427} of the earth.{H776}

And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth{H5127} from the noise{H6963} of the fear{H6343} shall fall{H5307} into the pit;{H6354} and he that cometh up{H5927} out of the midst{H8432} of the pit{H6354} shall be taken{H3920} in the snare:{H6341} for the windows{H699} on high{H4791} are opened,{H6605} and the foundations{H4146} of the earth{H776} tremble.{H7493}

The earth{H776} is utterly{H7489} broken,{H7489} the earth{H776} is rent{H6565} asunder,{H6565} the earth{H776} is shaken{H4131} violently.{H4131}

The earth{H776} shall stagger{H5128} like a drunken{H7910} man,{H5128} and shall sway to and fro{H5110} like a hammock;{H4412} and the transgression{H6588} thereof shall be heavy{H3513} upon it, and it shall fall,{H5307} and not rise{H6965} again.{H3254}

And it shall come to pass in that day,{H3117} that Jehovah{H3068} will punish{H6485} the host{H6635} of the high ones{H4791} on high,{H4791} and the kings{H4428} of the earth{H127} upon the earth.{H127}

And they shall be gathered together,{H622} as prisoners{H616} are gathered{H626} in the pit,{H953} and shall be shut up{H5462} in the prison;{H4525} and after many{H7230} days{H3117} shall they be visited.{H6485}

Then the moon{H3842} shall be confounded,{H2659} and the sun{H2535} ashamed;{H954} for Jehovah{H3068} of hosts{H6635} will reign{H4427} in mount{H2022} Zion,{H6726} and in Jerusalem;{H3389} and before his elders{H2205} shall be glory.{H3519}
