31     The uproar will echo to ends of the earth
        because the Eternal brings His charge against the nations.
    He will judge all humanity and punish the wicked in battle.

So says the Eternal.

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.

32 This is what the Lord Almighty says:

“Look! Disaster(F) is spreading
    from nation to nation;(G)
a mighty storm(H) is rising
    from the ends of the earth.”(I)
