God’s Judgment Against Babylon

Look, the Lord’s day of judging is coming—
    a terrible day, a day of God’s anger.
He will destroy the land
    and the sinners who live in it.
10 The stars will not show their light;
    the skies will be dark.
The sun will grow dark as it rises,
    and the moon will not give its light.

11 The Lord says, “I will punish the world for its evil
    and wicked people for their sins.
I will cause proud people to lose their pride,
    and I will destroy the pride of those who are cruel to others.
