15 A day of wrath is that day,a day of distress and anguish,a day of ruin and desolation,A day of darkness and gloom,a day of thick black clouds,
16 A day of trumpet blasts and battle criesagainst fortified cities,against lofty battlements.
17 I will hem the people intill they walk like the blind,because they have sinned against the Lord;And their blood shall be poured out like dust,and their bowels like dung.
18 Neither their silver nor their goldwill be able to save them.On the day of the Lord’s wrath,in the fire of his passion,all the earth will be consumed.For he will make an end, yes, a sudden end,of all who live on the earth.
