    and they will be dismayed.
Pangs and labor pains will seize them;
    they will tremble like a woman giving birth.
They will stare at one another,[a]
    their faces flushing.[b]

    cruel and wrath and the burning of anger,
to make the earth a desolation,
    and he will destroy its sinners from it.

    the sun will keep back when it comes out,
    and the moon will not cause its light to shine.
