A nation-wrecker is on the prowl like a lion coming up from his lair. He is roused from his den to ransack your land. Your cities will be ruined and left without inhabitant.

I looked at the earth, and it was completely empty and formless, the heavens hid its light. I looked at the mountains and saw them trembling, and all the hills were shaking to and fro. I looked for a human, but not one was to be found. Every bird had flown away. I looked at the once fruitful land, now nothing but a desert, all its cities left in ruins before YAHWEH’s burning anger. “For I, YAHWEH, have spoken: ‘The whole land will remain desolate; however, the end of the world is not yet. This is why the earth will mourn, and the heavens will veil their light— because I have spoken. I will neither relent nor turn away from my plans.’ ” When they hear the approach of the horsemen and archers, the whole city flees in terror. Some run into the forest to hide, and others climb up into the rocks. Every city is deserted, and no one lives there anymore.
