Isaiah 13:6-9
Wail, for Yahweh’s day is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.Therefore all hands will be feeble, and everyone’s heart will melt.They will be dismayed. Pangs and sorrows will seize them. They will be in pain like a woman in labor. They will look in amazement one at another. Their faces will be faces of flame.Behold, the day of Yahweh comes, cruel, with wrath and fierce anger; to make the land a desolation, and to destroy its sinners out of it.

Zephaniah 1:14-18
The great day of Yahweh is near. It is near, and hurries greatly, the voice of the day of Yahweh. The mighty man cries there bitterly.That day is a day of wrath, a day of distress and anguish, a day of trouble and ruin, a day of darkness and gloom, a day of clouds and blackness,a day of the trumpet and alarm, against the fortified cities, and against the high battlements.I will bring distress on men, that they will walk like blind men, because they have sinned against Yahweh, and their blood will be poured out like dust, and their flesh like dung.Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them in the day of Yahweh’s wrath, but the whole land will be devoured by the fire of his jealousy; for he will make an end, yes, a terrible end, of all those who dwell in the land.

“ You, son of man, the Lord Yahweh says to the land of Israel,‘ An end! The end has come on the four corners of the land.Now is the end on you, and I will send my anger on you, and will judge you according to your ways. I will bring on you all your abominations.My eye will not spare you, neither will I have pity; but I will bring your ways on you, and your abominations will be among you. Then you will know that I am Yahweh.’“ The Lord Yahweh says:‘ An evil! A unique evil! Behold, it comes.An end has come. The end has come! It awakes against you. Behold, it comes.Your doom has come to you, inhabitant of the land! The time has come! The day is near, a day of tumult, and not of joyful shouting, on the mountains.Now I will shortly pour out my wrath on you, and accomplish my anger against you, and will judge you according to your ways. I will bring on you all your abominations.My eye won’t spare, neither will I have pity. I will punish you according to your ways. Your abominations will be among you. Then you will know that I, Yahweh, strike.“‘ Behold, the day! Behold, it comes! Your doom has gone out. The rod has blossomed. Pride has budded.Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness. None of them will remain, nor of their multitude, nor of their wealth. There will be nothing of value among them.The time has come! The day draws near. Don’t let the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for wrath is on all its multitude.

When he came near, he saw the city and wept over it,saying,“ If you, even you, had known today the things which belong to your peace! But now, they are hidden from your eyes.For the days will come on you, when your enemies will throw up a barricade against you, surround you, hem you in on every side,and will dash you and your children within you to the ground. They will not leave in you one stone on another, because you didn’t know the time of your visitation.”

Therefore Yahweh, the God of Armies, the Lord, says:“ Wailing will be in all the wide ways; and they will say in all the streets,‘ Alas! Alas!’ and they will call the farmer to mourning, and those who are skillful in lamentation to wailing.In all vineyards there will be wailing; for I will pass through the middle of you,” says Yahweh.“ Woe to you who desire the day of Yahweh! Why do you long for the day of Yahweh? It is darkness, and not light.

As the dawn spreading on the mountains, a great and strong people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even to the years of many generations.

Ezekiel 12:22-28
“ Son of man, what is this proverb that you have in the land of Israel, saying,‘ The days are prolonged, and every vision fails?’Tell them therefore,‘ The Lord Yahweh says:“ I will make this proverb to cease, and they will no more use it as a proverb in Israel;”’ but tell them,‘“ The days are at hand, and the fulfillment of every vision.For there will be no more any false vision nor flattering divination within the house of Israel.For I am Yahweh. I will speak, and the word that I speak will be performed. It will be no more deferred; for in your days, rebellious house, I will speak the word, and will perform it,” says the Lord Yahweh.’”Again Yahweh’s word came to me, saying,“ Son of man, behold, they of the house of Israel say,‘ The vision that he sees is for many days to come, and he prophesies of times that are far off.’“ Therefore tell them,‘ The Lord Yahweh says:“ None of my words will be deferred any more, but the word which I speak will be performed,” says the Lord Yahweh.’”
