1. Come near, you nations, and listen!Pay attention, you people!The earth and everything it contains must listen,the world and everything that lives in it.
2. For the Lord is angry at all the nationsand furious with all their armies.He will annihilate them and slaughter them.
3. Their slain will be left unburied,their corpses will stink; the hills will soak up their blood.
4. All the stars in the sky will fade away,the sky will roll up like a scroll;all its stars will wither,like a leaf withers and falls from a vineor a fig withers and falls from a tree.
