1. Look! The Lord will destroy the earth and leave it empty;he will ruin the surface of the land and scatter its people.
2. At that time the same thing will happen to everyone:to common people and priests,to slaves and masters,to women slaves and their women masters,to buyers and sellers,to those who borrow and those who lend,to bankers and those who owe the bank.
3. The earth will be completely empty.The wealth will all be taken,because the Lord has commanded it.
