11 I will punish the world for its evil,and the wicked for their iniquity;and I will cause the arrogance of the proud to cease,and will lay low the haughtiness of the ruthless.
12 I will make a man more rare than fine gold,and mankind than the golden wedge of Ophir.
13 Therefore, I will shake the heavens,and the earth shall be shaken out of her placeat the wrath of the Lord of Hostsand in the day of His fierce anger.
14 It shall be as the chased roe,and as a sheep that no man takes up;every man shall turn to his own peopleand flee every one into his own land.
15 Every one who is found shall be thrust through,and every one who is joined to them shall fall by the sword.
16 Their children also shall be dashed to pieces before their eyes;their houses shall be devastated and their wives ravished.
17 See, I will stir up the Medes against them,who shall not regard silver;and as for gold, they shall not delight in it.
