Isaiah 13:8 Context
6¶ Howle yee; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty. 7Therefore shall all hands bee faint, and euery mans heart shall melt. 8And they shalbe afraid: pangs and sorrowes shall take hold of them, they shalbe in paine as a woman that trauelleth: they shalbe amazed one at another, their faces shalbe as flames. 9Behold, the day of the Lord commeth, cruell both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it. 10For the starres of heauen, and the constellations thereof shall not giue their light: the sunne shalbe darkened in his going forth, and the moone shall not cause her light to shine.
