Bible: Isa 24:21-23; 59:16-20

The Lord Will Become King

24:21 At that time 1  the Lord will punish 2 

the heavenly forces in the heavens 3 

and the earthly kings on the earth.

24:22 They will be imprisoned in a pit, 4 

locked up in a prison,

and after staying there for a long time, 5  they will be punished. 6 

24:23 The full moon will be covered up, 7 

the bright sun 8  will be darkened; 9 

for the Lord who commands armies will rule 10 

on Mount Zion in Jerusalem 11 

in the presence of his assembly, in majestic splendor. 12 

1:16 God made two great lights 1 the greater light to rule over the day and the lesser light to rule over the night. He made the stars also. 2  1:17 God placed the lights 3  in the expanse of the sky to shine on the earth, 1:18 to preside over the day and the night, and to separate the light from the darkness. 4  God saw that it was good. 1:19 There was evening, and there was morning, a fourth day.

1:20 God said, “Let the water swarm with swarms 5  of living creatures and let birds fly 6  above the earth across the expanse of the sky.”
