Book 12 : NEVIIM - ISAIAH - Chapter 013

13:001

The burden of Babylon, which Isaiah the son of Amoz did see

13:002

Set ye up an ensign upon the high mountain, lift up the voice unto them, wave the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles

13:003

I have commanded My consecrated ones, yea, I have called My mighty ones for mine anger, even My proudly exulting ones

13:004

Hark, a tumult in the mountains, like as of a great people! Hark, the uproar of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together! HaShem of hosts mustereth the host of the battle

13:005

They come from a far country, from the end of heaven, even HaShem, and the weapons of His indignation, to destroy the whole earth

13:006

Howl ye; for the day of HaShem is at hand; as destruction from the Almighty shall it come

13:007

Therefore shall all hands be slack, and every heart of man shall melt

13:008

And they shall be affrighted; pangs and throes shall take hold them; they shall be in pain as a woman in travail; they shall look aghast one at another; their faces shall be faces of flame

13:009

Behold, the day of HaShem cometh, cruel, and full of wrath and fierce anger; to make the earth a desolation, and to destroy the sinners thereof out of it

13:010

For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light; the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine

13:011

And I will visit upon the world their evil, and upon the wicked their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the tyrants

13:012

I will make man more rare than fine gold, even man than the pure gold of Ophir

13:013

Therefore I will make the heavens to tremble, and the earth shall be shaken out of her place, for the wrath of HaShem of hosts, and for the day of His fierce anger

13:014

And it shall come to pass, that as the chased gazelle, and as sheep that no man gathereth, they shall turn every man to his own people, and shall flee every man to his own land

13:015

Every one that is found shall be thrust through; and every one that is caught shall fall by the sword

13:016

Their babes also shall be dashed in pieces before their eyes; their houses shall be spoiled, and their wives ravished

13:017

Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them, who shall not regard silver, and as for gold, they shall not delight in it

13:018

And their bows shall dash the young men in pieces; and they shall have no pity on the fruit of the womb; their eye shall not spare children

13:019

And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldeans' pride, shall be as when G-d overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah

13:020

It shall never be inhabited, neither shall it be dwelt in from generation to generation; neither shall the Arabian pitch tent there; neither shall the shepherds make their fold there

13:021

But wild-cats shall lie there; and their houses shall be full of ferrets; and ostriches shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there

13:022

And jackals shall howl in their castles, and wild-dogs in the pleasant palaces; and her time is near to come, and her days shall not be prolonged
