Isaiah 24:18-20
Contemporary English Version
18 If you are terrified and run,
you will fall into a pit;
if you crawl out of the pit,
you will get caught in a trap.
The sky has split apart
like a window thrown open.
The foundations of the earth
have been shaken;
19 the earth is shattered,
ripped to pieces.
20 It staggers and shakes
like a drunkard
or a hut in a windstorm.
It is burdened down with sin;
the earth will fall,
never again to get up.
Isaiah 24:18-20
New International Version
18 Whoever flees(A) at the sound of terror
will fall into a pit;(B)
whoever climbs out of the pit
will be caught in a snare.(C)
The floodgates of the heavens(D) are opened,
the foundations of the earth shake.(E)
19 The earth is broken up,(F)
the earth is split asunder,(G)
the earth is violently shaken.
20 The earth reels like a drunkard,(H)
it sways like a hut(I) in the wind;
so heavy upon it is the guilt of its rebellion(J)
that it falls(K)—never to rise again.(L)
