Isaiah 13:2-5
Legacy Standard Bible
2 (A)Lift up a standard on the [a](B)bare hill,
Heighten your voice at them,
(C)Wave the hand that they may (D)enter the doors of the nobles.
3 I have commanded My set apart ones,
I have even called My (E)mighty warriors,
My [b]proudly exulting ones,
To execute My anger.
4 A (F)sound of tumult on the mountains,
Like that of many people!
A sound of the rumbling of kingdoms,
Of nations gathered together!
Yahweh of hosts is mustering the host for battle.
5 They are coming from a far country,
From the (G)end of the sky,
Yahweh and His instruments of (H)indignation,
To (I)wreak destruction on the whole land.

An assembly of great nations from the land of the north,

Who does not return empty-handed.

Blow a trumpet among the nations!

And every land of [d]their rule.
