5. From a distant landthe Lord is comingfierce and furious—he brings his weaponsto destroy the earth.
6. Cry and weep!The day is comingwhen the mighty Lordwill bring destruction.
9. I, the Lord,will show no mercy or pitywhen that time comes.In my anger I will destroythe earth and every sinnerwho lives on it.
10. Light will disappearfrom the stars in the sky;the dawning sun will turn dark,and the moonwill lose its glow.
11. I will punish this evil worldand its peoplebecause of their sins.I will crush the horrible prideof those who are cruel.
12. Survivors will be harder to findthan the purest gold.
13. I, the Lord All-Powerful,am terribly angry—I will make the sky trembleand the earth shake loose.
