12In the town all is waste, and in the public place is destruction.
13For it will be in the heart of the earth among the peoples, like the shaking of an olive-tree, as the last of the grapes after the getting-in is done.
14But those will be making sounds of joy; they will be crying loudly from the sea for the glory of the Lord.
15Give praise to the Lord in the east, to the name of the Lord, the God of Israel, in the sea-lands.
16From the farthest part of the earth comes the sound of songs, glory to the upright. But I said, I am wasting away, wasting away, the curse is on me! The false ones go on in their false way, yes, they go on acting falsely.
17Fear, and death, and the net, are come on you, O people of the earth.
18And it will be that he who goes in flight from the sound of fear will be overtaken by death; and he who gets free from death will be taken in the net: for the windows on high are open, and the bases of the earth are shaking.
