31 The rage of battle will resound to the end of the earth,
    for there is a lawsuit of Yahweh against the nations.
He is entering into judgment with all wicked flesh,
    he will give them to the sword,’ declares[a] Yahweh.”

32 Thus says Yahweh of hosts,

“Look, disaster is going out from nation to nation,
    and a great tempest is stirred up from the farthest parts of the earth.
33 And the slain ones of Yahweh will be on that day
    from one end of the earth to the other end of the earth,
and they will not be mourned,
    and they will not be gathered,
and they will not be buried.
    They will become like dung on the surface[b] of the ground.
