11. Thus I will punish the world for its evil And the wicked for their iniquity; I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud And abase the haughtiness of the ruthless.
12. I will make mortal man scarcer than pure gold And mankind than the gold of Ophir.
13. Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, And the earth will be shaken from its place At the fury of the Lord of hosts In the day of His burning anger.
14. And it will be that like a hunted gazelle, Or like sheep with none to gather them, They will each turn to his own people, And each one flee to his own land.
15. Anyone who is found will be thrust through, And anyone who is captured will fall by the sword.
16. Their little ones also will be dashed to pieces Before their eyes; Their houses will be plundered And their wives ravished.
17. Behold, I am going to stir up the Medes against them, Who will not value silver or take pleasure in gold.
