New Testament

Isaiah 24:11-18 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

11. there is an outcry over the wine in the streets. All joy turns into darkness; the joy of the earth disappears.

12. Desolation is left in the city; the gate is crushed into a state of ruin.

13. For it shall be like this in the midst of the earth, among the nations, like the beating of an olive tree, like gleanings when a grape harvest is at an end.

14. They lift up their voices; they sing for joy; they shout out from the west over the majesty of Yahweh.

15. Therefore glorify Yahweh in the east, the name of Yahweh the God of Israel in the coastlands of the sea.

16. We hear songs from the edge of the earth: “Glory to the righteous one!” But I say, “Ruin to me! Ruin to me! Woe to me! The treacherous ones deal treacherously, and the treacherous ones deal treacherously with treachery!”

17. Terror and the pit and the snare are upon you, inhabitants of the earth!

18. And this shall happen: The one who flees from the sound of the terror shall fall into the pit, and the one who goes up from inside the pit shall be caught in the snare, for the windows from heaven are opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble.
