^12 (A)For the Lord of hosts has a day
    against all that is proud and lofty,
    against all that is lifted up—and it shall be brought low;

^6 (A)Wail, for ^(B)the day of the Lord is near;
    as destruction from the Almighty^[a] it will come!

⁹ Behold, ^(A)the day of the Lord comes,
    cruel, with wrath and fierce anger,
to make the land a desolation
    and ^(B)to destroy its sinners from it.

¹⁵ Alas for the day!
^(A)For the day of the Lord is near,
    and as destruction from the Almighty^[a] it comes.
