- Behold, the LORD lays the earth waste, devastates it, distorts its surface and scatters its inhabitants.
- And the people will be like the priest, the servant like his master, the maid like her mistress, the buyer like the seller, the lender like the borrower, the creditor like the debtor.
- The earth will be completely laid waste and completely despoiled, for the LORD has spoken this word.
- The earth mourns and withers, the world fades and withers, the exalted of the people of the earth fade away.
- The earth is also polluted by its inhabitants, for they transgressed laws, violated statutes, broke the everlasting covenant.

- See, the LORD is going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and scatter its inhabitants-
- it will be the same for priest as for people, for master as for servant, for mistress as for maid, for seller as for buyer, for borrower as for lender, for debtor as for creditor.
- The earth will be completely laid waste and totally plundered. The LORD has spoken this word.
- The earth dries up and withers, the world languishes and withers, the exalted of the earth languish.
- The earth is defiled by its people; they have disobeyed the laws, violated the statutes and broken the everlasting covenant.
