Isaiah 13:7-8-13 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

7-8. All people will be terrified.Hands will grow limp;courage will melt away.Everyone will tremble with painlike a woman giving birth;they will stare at each otherwith horror on their faces.

9. I, the Lord,will show no mercy or pitywhen that time comes.In my anger I will destroythe earth and every sinnerwho lives on it.

10. Light will disappearfrom the stars in the sky;the dawning sun will turn dark,and the moonwill lose its glow.

11. I will punish this evil worldand its peoplebecause of their sins.I will crush the horrible prideof those who are cruel.

12. Survivors will be harder to findthan the purest gold.

13. I, the Lord All-Powerful,am terribly angry—I will make the sky trembleand the earth shake loose.
