32 This is what the Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies, has to say:

Eternal One: Look what is happening!
        Disaster is spreading across the earth,
    From nation to nation;
        a mighty storm is gathering from the ends of the earth!

Coming in the wake of that fateful storm, the death and destruction are unimaginable.

33 Those killed by the Eternal in that day will blanket the earth from one end to the other. So great is their number that no one will gather the dead and bury them. No one will be there to mourn them. They will lie like dung upon the face of the earth.

34     Cry out, you shepherds, and weep;
        wallow in the dust—roll in ashes, you leaders of the flock.
    For the time has come for you to be slaughtered and scattered abroad.
        You will fall and shatter like a treasured vessel.
