Isaiah 24:18-20

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁸ People will hear about the danger,
    and they will be afraid.
Some of them will run away,
    but they will fall into holes and be trapped.
Some of them will climb out of the holes,
    but they will be caught in another trap.
The floodgates in the sky above will open,
    and the floods will begin.
    The foundations of the earth will shake.
¹⁹ There will be earthquakes,
    and the earth will split open.
²⁰ The sins of the world are very heavy,
    so the earth will fall under the weight.
It will shake like an old house.
    It will fall like a drunk.
    It will not be able to stand.
