Isaiah 13:12 Display Chapter and Footnotes   12 I will make a man more precious than fine gold; a man even [more precious] than the gold of Ophir. | Isaiah 24:6 Display Chapter and Footnotes   6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and those who dwell in it are desolate; therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men are left.2 [The earth has become so evil, it must be purged; as it was purged in the time of Noah, so it is about to be thinned. From the Word of the Lord within: "Long have we tolerated evil in the world; it is no longer tolerable. A purge must take place; deaths are necessary. All is being done for the sake of the children."] |
