rsv@Isaiah:13:6 @ Wail, for the day of the LORD is near; as destruction from the Almighty it will come!
rsv@Isaiah:13:7 @ Therefore all hands will be feeble, and every man's heart will melt,
rsv@Isaiah:13:8 @ and they will be dismayed. Pangs and agony will seize them; they will be in anguish like a woman in travail. They will look aghast at one another; their faces will be aflame.

rsv@Isaiah:13:12 @ I will make men more rare than fine gold, and mankind than the gold of Ophir.
