Footnotes
- 9 The Hebrew term often refers to moral evil (see Ezek 6:10; 14:22), but in many contexts it refers to calamity or disaster, sometimes as punishment for evil behavior.
- 10 So most Hebrew ; many Hebrew read “disaster after disaster” (cf. , , , ).
- 11 Or “has come.”
- 12 Or “has come.”
- 13 With different vowels the verb rendered “it has awakened” would be the noun “the end,” as in “the end is upon you.” The verb would represent a phonetic wordplay. The noun by virtue of repetition would continue to reinforce the idea of the end. Whether verb or noun, this is the only instance to occur with this preposition.
- 14 For this entire verse, the has only “the end is come.” In each of the three cases of the verb translated with forms of “to come,” the form may either be a participle (“comes/is coming”) or a perfect (“has come”). Either form would indicate that the end is soon to arrive. This last form appears also to be feminine, although “end” is masculine. This shift may be looking ahead to the next verse, whose first noun (“Doom”) is feminine.
- 15 The day refers to the day of the Lord, a concept which, beginning in Amos 5:18–20, became a common theme in the OT prophetic books. It refers to a time when the Lord intervenes in human affairs as warrior and judge.
- 16 The reads “neither tumult nor birth pains.” The varies at many points from the in this chapter. The context suggests that one or both of these would be present on a day of judgment, thus favoring the . Perhaps more significant is the absence of “the mountains” in the . If the ר (resh) in הָרִים (harim, “the mountains” not “on the mountains”) were a ד (dalet), which is a common letter confusion, then it could be from the same root as the previous word, הֵד (hed), meaning “the day is near—with destruction, not joyful shouting.”

This is what the Lord God says:
Look, one disaster after another is coming!
An end has come; the end has come!
It has awakened against you.
Look, it is coming!
Doom has come on you,
inhabitants of the land.
The time has come; the day is near.
There will be panic on the mountains

“This is what the Sovereign Lord says:
Disaster after disaster
is coming your way!
The end has come.
It has finally arrived.
Your final doom is waiting!
O people of Israel, the day of your destruction is dawning.
The time has come; the day of trouble is near.
Shouts of anguish will be heard on the mountains,
not shouts of joy.
