ISV(i)
17 Every hand will be limp. Every knee will glisten with sweat.”
18The Coming Terror“They’ll clothe themselves with sackcloth, terror will overcome them, shame will cover their faces, and baldness will spread over their entire heads.
19 They’ll fling their silver into the streets, and their gold will be cast away as impure. Their silver and gold won’t be able to deliver them during the time of the LORD’s wrath. They won’t be able to satisfy their appetites or fill their stomachs, because their iniquity has tripped them up.”
20The Temple Defiled“As for his beautiful ornament, he set it up in majesty, but they made detestable images and loathsome idols. Therefore, I’ll give them something loathsome—
21 I’ll give it as plunder into the control of strangers and as the spoils of war to the wicked who will invade the land to profane it.
22 I’ll turn my face away from them so that they’ll defile my treasured place. Robbers will enter and profane it!
