11 So I will (A)punish the world for its evil
And the (B)wicked for their wrongdoing;
I will also put an end to the (C)audacity of the proud
And humiliate the (D)arrogance of the [a](E)tyrants.

  1. Isaiah 13:11 Or violent

12 Therefore this is what the Holy One of Israel says:

(A)Since you have rejected this word
And have put your trust in (B)oppression and crookedness, and have relied on them,
13 Therefore this (C)wrongdoing will be to you
Like a (D)breach about to fall,
A bulge in a high wall,
Whose collapse comes (E)suddenly in an instant,
14 Whose collapse is like the smashing of a (F)potter’s jar,
[a]So ruthlessly shattered
That a shard will not be found among its pieces
To [b]take fire from a hearth
Or to scoop water from a cistern.”

  2. Isaiah 30:14 Lit snatch up

Behold, it is written before Me:
I will (A)not keep silent, but (B)I will repay;
I will even repay [a]into their laps,
Both your own (C)wrongdoings and the wrongdoings of your fathers together,” says the Lord.
“Because they have (D)burned incense on the mountains
And (E)scorned Me on the hills,
Therefore I will (F)measure their former work [b]into their laps.”
