7:1  Moreover the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
7:2  Also, you son of man, thus says the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end has come upon the four corners of the land.
7:3  Now has the end come upon you, and I will send my anger upon you, and will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense upon you all your abominations.
7:4  And my eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity: but I will recompense your ways upon you, and your abominations shall be in the midst of you: and you shall know that I am the LORD.
7:5  Thus says the Lord GOD; An evil, a special evil, behold, has come.
7:6  An end has come, the end has come: it watches for you; behold, it has come.
7:7  The morning has come unto you, O you that dwell in the land: the time has come, the day of trouble is near, and not the rejoicing upon the mountains.
7:8  Now will I shortly pour out my fury upon you, and accomplish my anger upon you: and I will judge you according to your ways, and will recompense you for all your abominations.
7:9  And my eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity: I will recompense you according to your ways and your abominations that are in the midst of you; and you shall know that I am the LORD that strikes.
7:10  Behold the day, behold, it has come: the morning has gone forth; the rod has blossomed, pride has budded.
7:11  Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness: none of them shall remain, nor of their multitude, nor of any of theirs: neither shall there be wailing for them.
7:12  The time has come, the day draws near: let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn: for wrath is upon all their multitude.
7:13  For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they were yet alive: for the vision concerns the whole multitude, which shall not return; neither shall any strengthen himself in the iniquity of his life.
7:14  They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goes to the battle: for my wrath is upon all their multitude.
7:15  The sword is outside, and the pestilence and the famine inside: he that is in the field shall die by the sword; and he that is in the city, famine and pestilence shall devour him.
7:16  But they that escape them shall escape, and shall be on the mountains like doves of the valleys, all of them mourning, every one for his iniquity.
7:17  All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall be weak as water.
7:18  They shall also gird themselves with sackcloth, and horror shall cover them; and shame shall be upon all faces, and baldness upon all their heads.
7:19  They shall cast their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be removed: their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of the LORD: they shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their stomachs: because it is the stumblingblock of their iniquity.
7:20  As for the beauty of his ornament, he set it in majesty: but they made the images of their abominations and of their detestable things from it: therefore have I set it far from them.
7:21  And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for plunder, and to the wicked of the earth for spoil; and they shall pollute it.
7:22  My face will I turn also from them, and they shall pollute my secret place: for the robbers shall enter into it, and defile it.
7:23  Make a chain: for the land is full of bloody crimes, and the city is full of violence.
7:24  Therefore I will bring the worst of the nations, and they shall possess their houses: I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled.
7:25  Destruction comes; and they shall seek peace, and there shall be none.
7:26  Mischief shall come upon mischief, and rumor shall be upon rumor; then shall they seek a vision of the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and counsel from the elders.
7:27  The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with desolation, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled: I will do unto them after their way, and according to their deserts will I judge them; and they shall know that I am the LORD.
