13. Then others will take their wealth and destroy their houses. Those who built houses will not live in them, and those who planted vineyards will not drink the wine from the grapes.”
14. The Lord’S special day for judging is coming soon! It is near and coming fast. People will hear very sad sounds on the Lord’S special day of judgment. Even strong soldiers will cry.
15. The Lord will show his anger at that time. It will be a time of terrible troubles and a time of destruction. It will be a time of darkness—a black, cloudy, and stormy day.
16. It will be like a time of war when people hear horns and trumpets in the defense towers and protected cities.
17. The Lord said, “I will make life very hard on the people. They will walk around like the blind who don’t know where they are going. That will happen because they sinned against the Lord. Their blood will be spilled on the ground. Their dead bodies will lie like dung on the ground.
