Isaiah 13:5-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 13
5They are coming from a distant country, From the farthest horizons, The Lord and the weapons of His indignation, To destroy the whole land. 6Wail, for the day of the Lord is near! It will come as destruction from the Almighty. 7Therefore all hands will fall limp, And every human heart will melt. 8They will be terrified, Pains and anguish will take hold of them; They will writhe like a woman in labor, They will look at one another in astonishment, Their faces aflame. 9Behold, the day of the Lord is coming, Cruel, with fury and burning anger, To make the land a desolation; And He will exterminate its sinners from it.King James Version

Chapter 13
5They are coming from a distant land, from the farthest horizon— the Lord and the weapons of his wrath— to destroy the whole country. 6Wail! For the day of the Lord is near. It will come as destruction from the Almighty. 7Therefore everyone’s hands will become weak, and every man will lose heart. 8They will be horrified; pain and agony will seize them; they will be in anguish like a woman in labor. They will look at each other, their faces flushed with fear. 9Look, the day of the Lord is coming— cruel, with rage and burning anger— to make the earth a desolation and to destroy its sinners.New Living Translation
6Scream in terror, for the day of the Lord has arrived — the time for the Almighty to destroy.
7Every arm is paralyzed with fear. Every heart melts,
8and people are terrified. Pangs of anguish grip them, like those of a woman in labor. They look helplessly at one another, their faces aflame with fear.

They will look aghast at one another; their faces will be aflame. 9Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger, to make the land a desolation and to destroy its sinners from it.New International Version
