An Oracle Against Babylon

6 Mourn therefore, for the day of the LORD is at hand, and cometh as a destroyer from the Almighty. 7 Then shall all hands be letten down, and all men's hearts shall melt away; 8 they shall stand in fear, carefulness and sorrow shall come upon them, and they shall have pain, as a woman that travaileth with child. One shall ever be abashed of another, and their faces shall burn like the flame.
