Strongs On/Off
Context
1:16 a day of trumpet blasts and battle cries. Judgment will fall on the fortified cities and the high corner towers .
1:17 I will bring distress on the people and they will stumble like blind men, for they have sinned against the Lord . Their blood will be poured out like dirt ; their flesh will be scattered like manure .
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 will be consumed by his fiery wrath . Indeed , he will bring terrifying destruction on all who live on the earth .”
