Isaiah 13

1 The vision which Isaiah son of Amoz saw against Babylon.

2 Lift up a standard on the mountain of the plain, exalt the voice to them, beckon with the hand, open the gates, you rulers.

3 I give command, and I bring them; giants are coming to fulfill My wrath, rejoicing at the same time and insulting.

4 A voice of many nations on the mountains, even like to that of many nations; a voice of kings and nations gathered together; the Lord of hosts has given command to a war-like nation,

5 to come from a land afar off, from the utmost foundation of heaven; the Lord and His warriors are coming to destroy all the world.

6 Howl, for the day of the Lord is near, and destruction from God shall arrive.

7 Therefore every hand shall become powerless, and every soul of man shall be dismayed.

8 The elders shall be troubled, and pangs shall seize them, as of a woman in labor; and they shall mourn one to another, and shall be amazed, and shall change their countenance as a flame.

9 For behold, the day of the Lord is coming which cannot be escaped, a day of wrath and anger, to make the world desolate, and to destroy sinners out of it.

10 For the stars of heaven, and Orion, and all the host of heaven, shall not give their light; and it shall be dark at sunrise, and the moon shall not give her light.

11 And I will command evils for the whole world, and will visit their sins on the ungodly; and I will destroy the pride of transgressors, and will bring low the pride of the haughty.

12 And they that are left shall be more precious than gold tried in the fire; and a man shall be more precious than the stone that is in Ophir.

13 For the heaven shall be enraged, and the earth shall be shaken from her foundation, because of the fierce anger of the Lord of hosts, in the day in which His wrath shall come on.

14 And they that are left shall be as a fleeing fawn, and as a stray sheep, and there shall be none to gather them; so that a man shall turn back to his people, and a man shall flee to his own land.

15 For whosoever shall be taken shall be overcome; and they that are gathered together shall fall by the sword.

16 And they shall dash their children before their eyes; and they shall spoil their houses, and shall take their wives.

17 Behold, I will stir up the Medes against you, who do not regard silver, neither have they need of gold.

18 They shall break the bows of the young men; and they shall have no mercy on your children; nor shall their eyes spare your children.

19 And Babylon, which is called glorious by the king of the Chaldeans, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

20 It shall never be inhabited, neither shall any enter into it for many generations; neither shall the Arabians pass through it; nor shall shepherds at all rest in it.

21 But wild beasts shall rest there; and the houses shall be filled with howling; and monsters shall rest there, and demons shall dance there,

22 and satyrs shall dwell there; and hedgehogs shall make their nests in their houses. It will come soon, and will not tarry.

Isaiah 13

1 The oracle concerning Babylon which Isaiah the son of Amoz saw.

2 On a bare hill raise a signal; cry aloud to them; wave the hand for them to enter the gates of the nobles.

3 I myself have commanded my consecrated ones, and have summoned my mighty men to execute my anger, my proudly exulting ones.[1]

4 The sound of a tumult is on the mountains as of a great multitude! The sound of an uproar of kingdoms, of nations gathering together! The LORD of hosts is mustering a host for battle.

5 They come from a distant land, from the end of the heavens, the LORD and the weapons of his indignation, to destroy the whole land.[2]

6 Wail, for the day of the LORD is near; as destruction from the Almighty[3] it will come!

7 Therefore all hands will be feeble, and every human heart will melt.

8 They will be dismayed: pangs and agony will seize them; they will be in anguish like a woman in labor. They will look aghast at one another; their faces will be aflame.

9 Behold, the day of the LORD comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger, to make the land a desolation and to destroy its sinners from it.

10 For the stars of the heavens and their constellations will not give their light; the sun will be dark at its rising, and the moon will not shed its light.

11 I will punish the world for its evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; I will put an end to the pomp of the arrogant, and lay low the pompous pride of the ruthless.

12 I will make people more rare than fine gold, and mankind than the gold of Ophir.

13 Therefore I will make the heavens tremble, and the earth will be shaken out of its place, at the wrath of the LORD of hosts in the day of his fierce anger.

14 And like a hunted gazelle, or like sheep with none to gather them, each will turn to his own people, and each will flee to his own land.

15 Whoever is found will be thrust through, and whoever is caught will fall by the sword.

16 Their infants will be dashed in pieces before their eyes; their houses will be plundered and their wives ravished.

17 Behold, I am stirring up the Medes against them, who have no regard for silver and do not delight in gold.

18 Their bows will slaughter[4] the young men; they will have no mercy on the fruit of the womb; their eyes will not pity children.

19 And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the splendor and pomp of the Chaldeans, will be like Sodom and Gomorrah when God overthrew them.

20 It will never be inhabited or lived in for all generations; no Arab will pitch his tent there; no shepherds will make their flocks lie down there.

21 But wild animals will lie down there, and their houses will be full of howling creatures; there ostriches[5] will dwell, and there wild goats will dance.

22 Hyenas[6] will cry in its towers, and jackals in the pleasant palaces; its time is close at hand and its days will not be prolonged.
