Proclamation Against Babylon
|
|
|
|
# Chapter 13
|
|
1. The burden against Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.
|
|
|
|
2. "Lift up a banner on the high mountain,
|
|
Raise your voice to them;
|
|
Wave your hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.
|
|
|
|
3. I have commanded My sanctified ones;
|
|
I have also called My mighty ones for My anger--
|
|
Those who rejoice in My exaltation."
|
|
|
|
4. The noise of a multitude in the mountains,
|
|
Like that of many people!
|
|
A tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together!
|
|
The Lord of hosts musters
|
|
The army for battle.
|
|
|
|
5. They come from a far country,
|
|
From the end of heaven--
|
|
The Lord and His weapons of indignation,
|
|
To destroy the whole land.
|
|
|
|
6. Wail, for the day of the Lord is at hand!
|
|
It will come as destruction from the Almighty.
|
|
|
|
7. Therefore all hands will be limp,
|
|
Every man's heart will melt,
|
|
|
|
8. And they will be afraid.
|
|
Pangs and sorrows will take hold of them;
|
|
They will be in pain as a woman in childbirth;
|
|
They will be amazed at one another;
|
|
Their faces will be like flames.
|
|
|
|
9. Behold, the day of the Lord comes,
|
|
Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger,
|
|
To lay the land desolate;
|
|
And He will destroy its sinners from it.
|
|
|
|
10. For the stars of heaven and their constellations
|
|
Will not give their light;
|
|
The sun will be darkened in its going forth,
|
|
And the moon will not cause its light to shine.
|
|
|
|
11. "I will punish the world for its evil,
|
|
And the wicked for their iniquity;
|
|
I will halt the arrogance of the proud,
|
|
And will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
|
|
|
|
12. I will make a mortal more rare than fine gold,
|
|
A man more than the golden wedge of Ophir.
|
|
|
|
13. Therefore I will shake the heavens,
|
|
And the earth will move out of her place,
|
|
In the wrath of the Lord of hosts
|
|
And in the day of His fierce anger.
|
|
|
|
14. It shall be as the hunted gazelle,
|
|
And as a sheep that no man takes up;
|
|
Every man will turn to his own people,
|
|
And everyone will flee to his own land.
|
|
|
|
15. Everyone who is found will be thrust through,
|
|
And everyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
|
|
|
|
16. Their children also will be dashed to pieces before their eyes;
|
|
Their houses will be plundered
|
|
And their wives ravished.
|
|
|
|
17. "Behold, I will stir up the Medes against them,
|
|
Who will not regard silver;
|
|
And as for gold, they will not delight in it.
|
|
|
|
18. Also their bows will dash the young men to pieces,
|
|
And they will have no pity on the fruit of the womb;
|
|
Their eye will not spare children.
|
|
|
|
19. And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms,
|
|
The beauty of the Chaldeans' pride,
|
|
Will be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
|
|
|
|
20. It will never be inhabited,
|
|
Nor will it be settled from generation to generation;
|
|
Nor will the Arabian pitch tents there,
|
|
Nor will the shepherds make their sheepfolds there.
|
|
|
|
21. But wild beasts of the desert will lie there,
|
|
And their houses will be full of owls;
|
|
Ostriches will dwell there,
|
|
And wild goats will caper there.
|
|
|
|
22. The hyenas will howl in their citadels,
|
|
And jackals in their pleasant palaces.
|
|
Her time is near to come,
|
|
And her days will not be prolonged."
