'They have ^(C1)blown the trumpet and made everything ready, but no one is going to the battle, for My wrath is against all ^(F1)their multitude.

'The ^(C1)sword is outside the city and the plague and the famine are within. Anyone who is in the field will die by the sword, while famine and the plague will consume those in the city.

'Even when their survivors ^(C1)escape, they will be on the mountains like ^(C2)doves of the valleys, all of them ^(C3)moaning, each over his own wrongdoing.

'All ^(C1)hands will hang limp, and all ^(F1)knees will drip with water.

'They will ^(C1)put on sackcloth and ^(C2)shuddering will overwhelm them; and shame will be on all faces, and a ^(F1)(C3)bald patch on all their heads.

'They will ^(C1)fling their silver into the streets, and their gold will become an abhorrent thing; their ^(C2)silver and their gold will not be able to save them on the day of the wrath of the LORD. They cannot satisfy their ^(F1)appetite, nor can they fill their stomachs, because their wrongdoing has become a cause of stumbling.
