19. the earth is shattered,ripped to pieces.
20. It staggers and shakeslike a drunkardor a hut in a storm.It is burdened down with sin;the earth will fall,never again to get up.
21. On that day the Lordwill punish the powersin the heavensand the kings of the earth.
22. He will put them in a pitand keep them prisoner.Then later on,he will punish them.
23. The moon and sun will bothbe embarrassed and ashamed.The Lord All-Powerful will ruleon Mount Zion in Jerusalem,where he will show its rulershis wonderful glory.
