The Lord will Judge the Nations

30 “You are to prophesy all these things against them, and you are to say to them,

‘The Lord roars from his high place,
    from his holy dwelling he lifts his voice.
He roars loudly against his flock,[a]
    and against all who live on the earth;
        he shouts like those treading grapes.[b]
31 A tumult reaches to the ends of the earth
    because the Lord is bringing an indictment against the nations.
He judges all flesh.
    He has given the wicked over to the sword,’
        declares the Lord.
32 ‘This is what the Lord of the Heavenly Armies says:
    “Look, disaster is going from nation to nation,
a great storm is being stirred up
    from the most distant parts of the earth.
