1:15 That day will be a day of God’s anger, ¹ 

a day of distress and hardship,

a day of devastation and ruin,

a day of darkness and gloom,

a day of clouds and dark skies,

1:18 Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to deliver them

in the day of the Lord’s angry judgment.

The whole earth ²  will be consumed by his fiery wrath. ³ 

Indeed, ⁴  he will bring terrifying destruction ⁵  on all who live on the earth.” ⁶
