1. And the word of the Lord came to me:
2. “Son of man, this is what the Lord God says to the land of Israel:An end! The end has comeon the four corners of the land.
3. The end is now upon you;I will send My anger against youand judge you according to your ways.I will punish you for all your detestable practices.
4. I will not look on you with pity or spare you, but I will punish you for your ways and for your detestable practices within you.Then you will know that I am Yahweh.”
5. This is what the Lord God says:Look, one disaster after another is coming!
6. An end has come; the end has come!It has awakened against you.Look, it is coming!
7. Doom has come on you, inhabitants of the land.The time has come; the day is near.There will be panic on the mountainsand not celebration.
8. I will pour out My wrath on you very soon; I will exhaust My anger against youand judge you according to your ways.I will punish you for all your detestable practices.
9. I will not look on you with pity or spare you.I will punish you for your waysand for your detestable practices within you.Then you will knowthat it is I, Yahweh, who strikes.
10. Look, the day is coming!Doom has gone out. The rod has blossomed; arrogance has bloomed.
11. Violence has grown into a rod of wickedness. None of them will remain:none of their multitude,none of their wealth,and none of the eminent among them.
