19 The earth is utterly broken,

the earth is split apart,

the earth is violently shaken.

20 The earth staggers like a drunken man;

it sways like a hut;

its transgression lies heavy upon it,

and it falls, and will not rise again.

21 On that day the Lord will punish

the host of heaven, in heaven,

and the kings of the earth, on the earth.

22 They will be gathered together

as prisoners in a pit;

they will be shut up in a prison,

and after many days they will be punished.

23 Then the moon will be confounded

and the sun ashamed,

for the Lord of hosts reigns

on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

and his glory will be before his elders.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, The earth is clean dissolved, The earth is moved exceedingly. 20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, And shall be removed like a cottage; And the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; And it shall fall, and not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, That the Lord shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, And the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, And shall be shut up in the prison, And after many days shall they be visited. 23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, When the Lord of hosts shall reign In mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, And before his ancients gloriously.

19 The earth has broken up.

It has utterly collapsed;

it is violently shaken.

20 The earth staggers like a drunk.

It trembles like a tent in a storm.

It falls and will not rise again,

for the guilt of its rebellion is very heavy.

21 In that day the Lord will punish the gods in the heavens

and the proud rulers of the nations on earth.

22 They will be rounded up and put in prison.

They will be shut up in prison

and will finally be punished.

23 Then the glory of the moon will wane,

and the brightness of the sun will fade,

for the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will rule on Mount Zion.

He will rule in great glory in Jerusalem,

in the sight of all the leaders of his people.

19 The earth is violently broken,

The earth is split open,

The earth is shaken exceedingly.

20 The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard,

And shall totter like a hut;

Its transgression shall be heavy upon it,

And it will fall, and not rise again.

21 It shall come to pass in that day

That the Lord will punish on high the host of exalted ones,

And on the earth the kings of the earth.

22 They will be gathered together,

As prisoners are gathered in the pit,

And will be shut up in the prison;

After many days they will be punished.

23 Then the moon will be disgraced

And the sun ashamed;

For the Lord of hosts will reign

On Mount Zion and in Jerusalem

And before His elders, gloriously.

19 The earth will be broken up;

the earth will split open;

the earth will shake violently.

20 The earth will stumble around like someone who is drunk;

it will shake like a hut in a storm.

Its sin is like a heavy weight on its back;

it will fall and never rise again.

21 At that time the Lord will punish

the powers in the sky above

and the rulers on earth below.

22 They will be gathered together

like prisoners thrown into a dungeon;

they will be shut up in prison.

After much time they will be punished.

23 The moon will be embarrassed,

and the sun will be ashamed,

because the Lord All-Powerful will rule as king

on Mount Zion in Jerusalem.

Jerusalem’s leaders will see his greatness.

19 The earth is utterly broken, the earth is rent asunder, the earth is shaken violently. 20 The earth shall stagger like a drunken man, and shall sway to and fro like a hammock; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again.

21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will punish the host of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison; and after many days shall they be visited. 23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for Jehovah of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem; and before his elders shall be glory.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is completely dissolved, the earth is violently moved. 20 The earth reeleth to and fro like a drunkard, and is shaken like a night hut; and its transgression is heavy upon it; and it falleth and shall not rise again. 21 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will punish the host of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. 22 And they shall be brought together, as an assemblage of prisoners for the pit, and shall be shut up in prison, and after many days shall they be visited. 23 And the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed; for Jehovah of hosts shall reign on mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients in glory.

19 The earth will be completely broken. 

The earth will shake back and forth violently. 

The earth will stagger. 

20 The earth will stumble like a drunk 

and sway like a shack in the wind. 

Its disobedience weighs heavy on it. 

It will fall and not get up again. 

21 On that day the Lord will punish heaven’s armies in heaven 

and earth’s kings on earth. 

22 They’ll be gathered like prisoners in a jail 

and locked in prison. 

After a long time they’ll be punished. 

23 The moon will be embarrassed. 

The sun will be ashamed, 

because the Lord of Armies will rule 

on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem. 

He will be glorious 

in the presence of his respected leaders. 

19 The earth is completely devastated;

the earth is split open;

the earth is violently shaken.

20 The earth staggers like a drunkard

and sways like a hut.

Earth’s rebellion weighs it down,

and it falls, never to rise again.

21 On that day the Lord will punish

the host of heaven above

and kings of the earth below.

22 They will be gathered together

like prisoners in a pit.

They will be confined to a dungeon;

after many days they will be punished.

23 The moon will be put to shame

and the sun disgraced,

because the Lord of Hosts will reign as king

on Mount Zion in Jerusalem,

and He will display His glory

in the presence of His elders.

19 The earth is utterly broken,

the earth is torn asunder,

the earth is violently shaken.

20 The earth staggers like a drunkard,

it sways like a hut;

its transgression lies heavy upon it,

and it falls, and will not rise again.

21 On that day the Lord will punish

the host of heaven in heaven,

and on earth the kings of the earth.

22 They will be gathered together

like prisoners in a pit;

they will be shut up in a prison,

and after many days they will be punished.

23 Then the moon will be abashed,

and the sun ashamed;

for the Lord of hosts will reign

on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

and before his elders he will manifest his glory.

19 The earth is utterly broken;

the earth is torn asunder;

the earth is shaken violently.

20 The earth staggers to and fro like the drunkard,

and it sways like a hut,

and its transgression is heavy upon it,

and it falls and does not rise again.

21 And this shall happen on that day:

Yahweh will punish the host of heaven in heaven,

and the kings of the earth on the earth.

22 And they will be gathered in a gathering, like a prisoner in a pit.

And they will be shut in a prison and be punished after many days.

23 And the full moon will be ashamed

and the sun will be ashamed,

for Yahweh of hosts will rule on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

and before his elders in glory.

19 The earth will be broken up.

It will split open.

It will be shaken to pieces.

20 The earth will be unsteady like someone who is drunk.

It will sway like a tent in the wind.

Its sin will weigh so heavily on it that it will fall.

It will never get up again.

21 At that time the Lord will punish

the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens above.

He will also punish the kings on the earth below.

22 They will be brought together

like prisoners in chains.

They’ll be locked up in prison.

After many days the Lord will punish them.

23 The Lord who rules over all will rule

on Mount Zion in Jerusalem.

The elders of the city will be there.

They will see his glory.

His rule will be so glorious that the sun and moon

will be too ashamed to shine.

19 The earth is broken asunder,

The earth is split through,

The earth is shaken violently.

20 The earth reels to and fro like a drunkard

And it totters like a shack,

For its transgression is heavy upon it,

And it will fall, never to rise again.

21 So it will happen in that day,

That the Lord will punish the host of heaven on high,

And the kings of the earth on earth.

22 They will be gathered together

Like prisoners in the dungeon,

And will be confined in prison;

And after many days they will be punished.

23 Then the moon will be abashed and the sun ashamed,

For the Lord of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,

And His glory will be before His elders.
