The Lord is angry with all the nations;
    he is angry with their armies.
    He will destroy them and kill them all.
Their bodies will be thrown outside.
    The stink will rise from the bodies,
    and the blood will flow down the mountains.
The sun, moon, and stars will dissolve,
    and the sky will be rolled up like a scroll.
The stars will fall
    like dead leaves from a vine
    or dried-up figs from a fig tree.

    he will give them over to slaughter.(C)
Their slain(D) will be thrown out,
    their dead bodies(E) will stink;(F)
    the mountains will be soaked with their blood.(G)
All the stars in the sky will be dissolved(H)
    and the heavens rolled up(I) like a scroll;
all the starry host will fall(J)
    like withered(K) leaves from the vine,
    like shriveled figs from the fig tree.
