And the gate is battered to ruins.

They cry out from the [fn]west concerning the majesty of the LORD.

In the [fn]coastlands of the sea.

The treacherous deal treacherously,

And the treacherous deal very treacherously.”

Terror and pit and snare

[fn]Confront you, you inhabitant of the earth.

And the one who [fn]climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare;

For the windows [fn]above are opened, and the foundations of the earth shake.

The earth is split through,

The earth is shaken violently.

And sways like a hut,

For its wrongdoing is heavy upon it,

And it will fall, never to rise again.

That the LORD will punish the rebellious [fn]angels of [fn]heaven on high,

And the kings of the earth on earth.

They will be gathered together

Like prisoners in the [fn]dungeon,

And will be confined in prison;

And after many days they will be punished.

Then the moon will be ashamed and the sun be put to shame,

For the LORD of armies will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

And His glory will be before His elders.
