Isaiah 13:8 in Context — Isaiah 13

6 Aullad, porque cerca está el día de Jehová; vendrá como asolamiento del Todopoderoso.

7 Por tanto, se enervarán todas la manos, y desleiráse todo corazón de hombre:

8 Y se llenarán de terror; angustias y dolores los comprenderán; tendrán dolores como mujer de parto; pasmaráse cada cual [al mirar] á su compañero; sus rostros, rostros de llamas.

9 He aquí el día de Jehová viene, crudo, y de saña y ardor de ira, para tornar la tierra en soledad, y raer de ella sus pecadores.

10 Por lo cual las estrellas de los cielos y sus luceros no derramarán su lumbre; y el sol se oscurecerá en naciendo, y la luna no echará su resplandor.
