    You will be overwhelmed with all the trouble and pain—total destruction.
You will watch the sky fill with the thick clouds and gloomy darkness.
16 You will hear the trumpet blast and battle cry
    as He moves against the city that day.
You were so sure it was fortified against attack with its thick walls and high towers,
    yet they will surely fall.

Their bodies will be discarded like excrement.

    and their entrails like dung.(H)
