23:024:010 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in. 23:024:011 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone. 23:024:012 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction. 23:024:013 When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done. 23:024:014 They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the LORD, they shall cry aloud from the sea. 23:024:015 Wherefore glorify ye the LORD in the fires, even the name of the LORD God of Israel in the isles of the sea. 23:024:016 From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, My leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously. 23:024:017 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth. 23:024:018 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake. 23:024:019 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is moved exceedingly. 23:024:020 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. 23:024:021 And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 23:024:022 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited. 23:024:023 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. 23:025:001 O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth. 23:025:002 For thou hast made of a city an heap; of a defenced city a ruin: a palace of strangers to be no city; it shall never be built. 23:025:003 Therefore shall the strong people glorify thee, the city of the terrible nations shall fear thee.
