15 That day is a day of wrath,

a day of trouble and distress,

a day of destruction and desolation,

a day of darknessy and gloom,

a day of clouds and total darkness,z

16 a day of trumpet and battle cry

against the fortified cities,

and against the high corner towers.

17 I will bring distress on mankind,

and they will walk like the blindaa

because they have sinned against the Lord.

Their blood will be poured out like dust

and their flesh like dung.
