Isaiah 24:16-23

Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

16From the ends of the earth we hear songs: “Glory to the Righteous One,”

But I say, “I am finished! I am finished! Woe to me!

The treacherous deal treacherously,

And the treacherous deal very treacherously.”

17Terror and pit and snare

Confront you, you inhabitant of the earth.

18Then it will be that the one who flees the sound of terror will fall into the pit,

And the one who climbs out of the pit will be caught in the snare;

For the windows above are opened, and the foundations of the earth shake.

19The earth is broken apart,

The earth is split through,

The earth is shaken violently.

20The earth trembles like a heavy drinker

And sways like a hut,

For its wrongdoing is heavy upon it,

And it will fall, never to rise again.

21So it will happen on that day,

That the Lord will punish the rebellious angels of heaven on high,

And the kings of the earth on earth.

22They will be gathered together

Like prisoners in the dungeon,

And will be confined in prison;

And after many days they will be punished.

23Then the moon will be ashamed and the sun be put to shame,

For the Lord of armies will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

And His glory will be before His elders.
