1 # Behold, the LORD <03068> maketh the earth <0776> empty <01238> (8802), and maketh it waste <01110> (8802) , and turneth <05753> (8765) it upside down <06440>, and scattereth abroad <06327> (8689) the inhabitants <03427> (8802) thereof.
2 And it shall be, as with the people <05971>, so with the priest <03548>; as with the servant <05650>, so with his master <0113> ; as with the maid <08198>, so with her mistress <01404>; as with the buyer <07069> (8802), so with the seller <04376> (8802) ; as with the lender <03867> (8688), so with the borrower <03867> (8801); as with the taker of usury <05383> (8802), so <0834> with the giver of usury <05378> (8801) to him.
3 The land <0776> shall be utterly <01238> (8736) emptied <01238> (8735), and utterly <0962> (8736) spoiled <0962> (8735): for the LORD <03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) this word <01697>.
4 The earth <0776> mourneth <056> (8804) and fadeth away <05034> (8804), the world <08398> languisheth <0535> (8797) and fadeth away <05034> (8804), the haughty <04791> people <05971> of the earth <0776> do languish <0535> (8797).
5 The earth <0776> also is defiled <02610> (8804) under the inhabitants <03427> (8802) thereof; because they have transgressed <05674> (8804) the laws <08451>, changed <02498> (8804) the ordinance <02706>, broken <06565> (8689) the everlasting <05769> covenant <01285>.
6 Therefore hath the curse <0423> devoured <0398> (8804) the earth <0776>, and they that dwell <03427> (8802) therein are desolate <0816> (8799): therefore the inhabitants <03427> (8802) of the earth <0776> are burned <02787> (8804), and few <04213> men <0582> left <07604> (8738).
7 The new wine <08492> mourneth <056> (8804), the vine <01612> languisheth <0535> (8797), all the merryhearted <08056> <03820> do sigh <0584> (8738).
8 The mirth <04885> of tabrets <08596> ceaseth <07673> (8804), the noise <07588> of them that rejoice <05947> endeth <02308> (8804), the joy <04885> of the harp <03658> ceaseth <07673> (8804).
9 They shall not drink <08354> (8799) wine <03196> with a song <07892>; strong drink <07941> shall be bitter <04843> (8799) to them that drink <08354> (8802) it.
10 The city <07151> of confusion <08414> is broken down <07665> (8738): every house <01004> is shut up <05462> (8795), that no man may come in <0935> (8800).
11 There is a crying <06682> for wine <03196> in the streets <02351>; all joy <08057> is darkened <06150> (8804), the mirth <04885> of the land <0776> is gone <01540> (8804).
12 In the city <05892> is left <07604> (8738) desolation <08047>, and the gate <08179> is smitten <03807> (8714) with destruction <07591>.
13 # When thus it shall be in the midst <07130> of the land <0776> among <08432> the people <05971>, there shall be as the shaking <05363> of an olive tree <02132>, and as the gleaning grapes <05955> when the vintage <01210> is done <03615> (8804).
14 They shall lift up <05375> (8799) their voice <06963>, they shall sing <07442> (8799) for the majesty <01347> of the LORD <03068>, they shall cry aloud <06670> (8804) from the sea <03220>.
15 Wherefore glorify <03513> (8761) ye the LORD <03068> in the fires <0217>, even the name <08034> of the LORD <03068> God <0430> of Israel <03478> in the isles <0339> of the sea <03220>.
16 # From the uttermost part <03671> of the earth <0776> have we heard <08085> (8804) songs <02158>, even glory <06643> to the righteous <06662>. But I said <0559> (8799), My leanness <07334>, my leanness <07334>, woe <0188> unto me! the treacherous dealers <0898> (8802) have dealt treacherously <0898> (8804); yea, the treacherous dealers <0898> (8802) have dealt very <0899> treacherously <0898> (8804).
17 Fear <06343>, and the pit <06354>, and the snare <06341>, are upon thee, O inhabitant <03427> (8802) of the earth <0776>.
18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth <05127> (8801) from the noise <06963> of the fear <06343> shall fall <05307> (8799) into the pit <06354>; and he that cometh up <05927> (8802) out of the midst <08432> of the pit <06354> shall be taken <03920> (8735) in the snare <06341>: for the windows <0699> from on high <04791> are open <06605> (8738), and the foundations <04146> of the earth <0776> do shake <07493> (8799).
19 The earth <0776> is utterly <07489> (8800) broken down <07489> (8712), the earth <0776> is clean <06565> (8800) dissolved <06565> (8707), the earth <0776> is moved <04131> (8694) exceedingly <04131> (8800).
20 The earth <0776> shall reel <05128> (8799) to and fro <05128> (8800) like a drunkard <07910>, and shall be removed <05110> (8712) like a cottage <04412>; and the transgression <06588> thereof shall be heavy <03513> (8804) upon it; and it shall fall <05307> (8804), and not rise <06965> (8800) again <03254> (8686).
21 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>, that the LORD <03068> shall punish <06485> (8799) the host <06635> of the high ones <04791> that are on high <04791>, and the kings <04428> of the earth <0127> upon the earth <0127>.
22 And they shall be gathered together <0622> (8795), as prisoners <0616> are gathered <0626> in the pit <0953> , and shall be shut up <05462> (8795) in the prison <04525>, and after many <07230> days <03117> shall they be visited <06485> (8735).
23 Then the moon <03842> shall be confounded <02659> (8804), and the sun <02535> ashamed <0954> (8804) , when the LORD <03068> of hosts <06635> shall reign <04427> (8804) in mount <02022> Zion <06726>, and in Jerusalem <03389> , and before his ancients <02205> gloriously <03519>.
