“But all who are left shout and sing for joy. Those in the west praise the Lord’s majesty. In the eastern lands, give glory to the Lord. In the lands beyond the sea, praise the name of the Lord, the God of Israel. We hear sons of praise from the ends of the earth, songs that give glory to the Righteous One! But my heart is heave with grief. Weep for me, for I wither away. Deceit still prevails, and treachery is everywhere. Terror and traps and snares will be your lot, you people of the earth. Thos who flee in terror will fall into a trap, and those who escape the trap will be caught in a snare.
Destruction falls like falls like rain from the heavens; the foundation of the earth shake. The earth has broken up. It has utterly collapsed; it is violently shaken. The earth staggers like a drunk. It trembles like a tent in a storm. It falls and will not rise again, for the guild of its rebellion is very heavy.
In that day, the Lord will punish the gods in the heavens and the proud rulers of the nations on earth. They will be rounded up and put in prison. They will be shut up in prison and will finally be punished. Then the glory of the moon will wane, and the brightness of the sun will face, for the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will rule on Mount Zion. He will rule in great glory in Jerusalem, in the sight of all the leaders of His people.” (vv. 14-23, NLT)
