1. The Lord’s word came to me:
2. You, human one, this is what the Lord God proclaims to the land of Israel:An end! The end has come to the four corners of the earth!
3. Even now the end is upon you!I’ll send my anger against you,I’ll judge you according to your ways,and I’ll turn all your detestable practices against you.
4. I won’t shed a tear for you or show any pity.Instead, I’ll turn your ways against you,and your detestable practices will stay with you.Then you will know that I am the Lord.
5. The Lord God proclaims:Disaster! A singular disaster! Look, it comes!
6. The end has come! Oh, yes, it has come!It has come to you! Look, it’s here!
7. You who live on the earth,you are finally caught in your own trap!The time has come; the day draws near.On the hills panic, not glory.
8. And now it’s near!Against you I will pour out my wrath,and my anger will be satisfied.I’ll judge you according to your ways,and turn all your detestable practices against you.
9. I won’t shed a tear or show any pitywhen I turn your ways against you,and your detestable practices stay with you.Then you will know that I, the Lord, am the one who strikes you!
