For the day of Jehovah of Hosts shall come upon all the proud and lofty ones, and upon all that is lifted up; and it shall be brought low;

and upon all the high mountains; and upon all the lifted up hills;

and upon all the ships of Tarshish; and upon all desirable craft.

And the idols shall completely pass away.

In that day a man shall throw his idols of silver and gold, which they made each man to bow down to, to the moles and to the bats;

Leave off from such a man, whose breath is in his nostril; for how is he to be accounted?

An end has come, the end has come; it has awakened against you; behold, it has come!

Now upon you I will soon pour out My fury, and spend My anger upon you; I will judge you according to your ways, and I will repay you for all your abominations.

Behold, the day! Behold, it has come! Morning has gone forth; the staff has blossomed, pride has budded.

The time has come, the day draws near. Let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn, for wrath is upon all their multitude.

And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel shall be gathered together, and shall appoint over themselves one head. And they shall go up out of the land; for great shall be the day of Jezreel.

And Jehovah gives His voice before His army, for His camp is very great. For he who does His Word is strong. For the day of Jehovah is very great and terrifying, and who can endure it?

The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of Jehovah.

Woe to those who desire the day of Jehovah! Of what good is this to you? The day of Jehovah is darkness, and not light.

Is not the day of Jehovah darkness, and not light; even very dark, and not any brightness in it?

The great day of Jehovah is near; it is near and hastens greatly, the sound of the day of Jehovah. The mighty man shall cry out bitterly there.

a day of the shofar and alarm against the fortified cities, and against the high towers.

Their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of Jehovah. But all the earth shall be devoured by the fire of His jealousy. For He shall make a complete and speedy end of all those who live in the land.

Behold, the day of Jehovah comes, and your spoils shall be divided in your midst.

For I will gather all the nations to battle against Jerusalem. And the city shall be captured, and the houses plundered, and the women ravished. And half the city shall go into captivity and the rest of the people shall not be cut off from the city.

For, behold, the day is coming, burning like a fire pot; and all the proud and everyone that does wickedness shall be chaff. And the coming day will set them ablaze, says Jehovah of Hosts, which will not leave to them root or branch.

The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord.

For the great day of His wrath has come, and who is able to stand?

Is it nothing to you, all you who pass by? Behold and see if there is any sorrow like my sorrow which is done to me, with which Jehovah has afflicted me in the day of His fierce anger.

What can I testify for you? To what thing shall I compare you, O daughter of Jerusalem? To what shall I equal you, so that I may comfort you, O virgin daughter of Zion? For your break is great like the sea! Who can heal you?

For the iniquity of the daughter of my people is greater than the sin of Sodom, which was overthrown as in a moment, with no hands to writhe over her.

And He has confirmed His Words which He spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing on us a great evil. For under the whole heavens it has never been done as has been done to Jerusalem.

And at that time, Michael shall stand up, the great ruler who stands for the sons of your people. And there shall be a time of distress, such as has not been since there was a nation until that time. And at that time, your people shall be delivered, everyone that shall be found written in the Book.

For then there will be great affliction, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.

And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be kept safe alive; but for the elect's sake those days will be shortened.

For in those days there will be affliction, such as has not been since the beginning of the creation which God created until this time, nor ever shall be.

And Jacob was greatly afraid and distressed; and he divided the people that were with him, and the flocks and herds and camels, into two companies.

And Jacob was left alone; and a Man wrestled with him until the dawn began to rise.

And He said, Let Me go, for the dawn has risen. But he said, I will not let You go unless You bless me!

And He said, Your name shall no longer be called Jacob, but Israel; for you have persevered with God and with men, and have prevailed.

And Jacob called the name of the place Penuel: For I have seen God face to face, and my soul is delivered.

Jehovah also has a quarrel with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; He will repay him according to his deeds.

Yes, he wept and pleaded with Him, and he contended with the Angel and prevailed. He found Him at Bethel, and He spoke with us there,

Therefore, do not fear, O My servant Jacob, says Jehovah. Do not be dismayed, O Israel. For lo, I will save you from afar, and your seed from the land of their captivity. And Jacob shall return, and shall be at rest, and be quiet, and no one shall make him afraid.

Therefore thus says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: Behold, I will punish the king of Babylon and his land, as I have punished the king of Assyria.

In those days, and at that time, says Jehovah, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and it shall not be found; and the sins of Judah, but they shall not be found; for I will pardon those whom I spare.

Redeem Israel, O God, out of all his troubles.

Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Jehovah delivers him out of them all.

For Jehovah will have mercy on Jacob, and will yet choose Israel and settle them in their own land; and the sojourner shall be joined with them, and they shall cling to the house of Jacob.

And the people shall take them and bring them to their place; and the house of Israel shall possess them in the land of Jehovah for servants and maids. And they shall make captives of their captors; and they shall rule over their oppressors.

And so all Israel will be saved, as it is written: The Deliverer will come out of Zion, and He will turn away ungodliness from Jacob;
