Judgment on the Nations

Come near, O nations, to listen;

pay attention, O peoples.

Let the earth hear, and all that fills it,

the world and all that springs from it.

2 

The LORD is angry with all the nations

and furious with all their armies.

He will devote them to destruction;[fn]

He will give them over to slaughter.

3 

Their slain will be left unburied,

and the stench of their corpses will rise;

the mountains will flow with their blood.

4 

All the stars of heaven will be dissolved.

The skies will be rolled up like a scroll,

and all their stars will fall

like withered leaves from the vine,

like foliage from the fig tree.
