31  A noise shall come even to wthe ends of the earth;

For ythe Lord hath a controversy with the nations,

zHe will plead with all flesh;

He will give them that are wicked to the sword, saith the Lord.

32  Thus saith the Lord of hosts,

Behold, evil shall go forth from nation to nation,

And aa great whirlwind bshall be raised up from the coasts of the earth.

33  And cthe slain of the Lord shall be at that day

From one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth:

dThey shall not be lamented, eneither gathered, denor buried;

eThey shall be dung upon the ground.

34  fHowl, gye shepherds, and cry;

And wallow yourselves hin the ashes, ye principal of the flock:

For †the days of your slaughter and of your dispersions are accomplished;

And ye shall fall like †a pleasant vessel.

35  And †gthe shepherds shall have no way to flee,

Nor the principal of the flock to escape.

36  A voice of the cry of gthe shepherds,

And an howling of the principal of the flock, shall be heard:

For the Lord hath spoiled their pasture.

37  And ithe peaceable habitations kare cut down

lBecause of the fierce anger of the Lord.

38  He hath forsaken mhis covert, as nthe lion:

For their land is †desolate

Because of the fierceness of othe oppressor,

And lbecause of his fierce anger.
