Isaiah 13:6-8

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁶ Wail, for the day of the Lord is near;
    it will come like destruction from the Almighty!^[a](A)
7 Therefore all hands will be feeble,
    and every human heart will melt,^(B)
8     and they will be terrified.
Pangs and agony will seize them;
    they will be in anguish like a woman in labor.
They will look aghast at one another;
    their faces will be aflame.^(C)
