Isaiah 13:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ Cry out! The day of the Lord is near.
    The Mighty One is coming to destroy the Babylonians.
⁷ Their hands won’t be able to help them.
    Everyone’s heart will melt away in fear.
⁸ The people will be filled with terror.
    Pain and suffering will grab hold of them.
    They will groan with pain like a woman having a baby.
They’ll look at one another in terror.
    Their faces will burn with shame.
