New Testament

Isaiah 13:2-6 New English Translation (NET)

2. On a bare hill raise a signal flag,shout to them,wave your hand,so they might enter the gates of the princes!

3. I have given orders to my chosen soldiers;I have summoned the warriors through whom I will vent my anger, my boasting, arrogant ones.

4. There is a loud noise on the mountains – it sounds like a large army!There is great commotion among the kingdoms – nations are being assembled!The Lord who commands armies is musteringforces for battle.

5. They come from a distant land,from the horizon.It is the Lord with his instruments of judgment,coming to destroy the whole earth.

6. Wail, for the Lord’s day of judgment is near;it comes with all the destructive power of the sovereign judge.
