Isaiah 24 — Context

16

From the ends of the earth we hear songs, "Glory to the Righteous One," But I say, "Woe to me! Woe to me! Alas for me! The treacherous deal treacherously, And the treacherous deal very treacherously."

17

Terror and pit and snare Confront you, O inhabitant of the earth.

18

Then it will be that he who flees the report of disaster will fall into the pit, And he who climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare; For the windows above are opened, and the foundations of the earth shake.

19

The earth is broken asunder, The earth is split through, The earth is shaken violently.

20

The earth reels to and fro like a drunkard And it totters like a shack, For its transgression is heavy upon it, And it will fall, never to rise again.

21

So it will happen in that day, That the LORD will punish the host of heaven on high, And the kings of the earth on earth.

22

They will be gathered together Like prisoners in the dungeon, And will be confined in prison; And after many days they will be punished.
