They are coming from a far country, from the end of the heavens. The Lord and all He is using to show His anger are coming to destroy the whole land. Cry out in sorrow, for the day of the Lord is near! It will come as a destroying power from the All-powerful.

  1. Isaiah 13:6 Hebrew Shaddai

The noise of a multitude in the mountains, like as of a great people; a tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together: the Lord of hosts mustereth the host of the battle.

Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty.
