And those who dwell in it are [a]desolate.
Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are (E)burned,
And few men are left.

Behold, (A)the day of the Lord comes,
Cruel, with both wrath and fierce anger,
To lay the land desolate;
And He will destroy (B)its sinners from it.
10 For the stars of heaven and their constellations
Will not give their light;
The sun will be (C)darkened in its going forth,
And the moon will not cause its light to shine.

11 “I will (D)punish the world for its evil,
And the wicked for their iniquity;
(E)I will halt the arrogance of the proud,
And will lay low the haughtiness of the [a]terrible.
12 I will make a mortal more rare than fine gold,
A man more than the golden wedge of Ophir.

Behold, (A)the day of the Lord is coming,
Cruel, with fury and burning anger,
To make the land a desolation;
And He will exterminate its sinners from it.

Will not flash their light;
The (C)sun will be dark when it rises
And the moon will not shed its light.
11 So I will (D)punish the world for its evil
And the (E)wicked for their wrongdoing;
I will also put an end to the (F)audacity of the proud
And humiliate the (G)arrogance of the [a](H)tyrants.
12 I will make mortal man (I)scarcer than pure gold
And mankind than the (J)gold of Ophir.

Listen carefully, the day of the Lord is coming,
Cruel, with wrath and raging anger,
To make the land a horror [of devastation];
And He shall exterminate its sinners from it.(A)

For the stars of heaven and their constellations
Will not flash with their light;
The sun will be dark when it rises,
And the moon will not shed its light.

In this way I will punish the world for its evil
And the wicked for their wickedness [their sin, their injustice, their wrongdoing];
I will also put an end to the arrogance of the proud
And will abase the arrogance of the tyrant.
12 
I will make mortal man more rare than fine gold,
And mankind [scarcer] than the pure gold of Ophir.
