NETBible

They come from a distant land, from the horizon.¹ It is the Lord with his instruments of judgment,² coming to destroy the whole earth.³

NET Notes

¹tn Heb “from the end of the sky.”

²tn Or “anger”; cf. KJV, ASV “the weapons of his indignation.”

³tn Or perhaps, “land” (so KJV, NAB, NASB, NLT). Even though the heading and subsequent context (see v. 17) indicate Babylon’s judgment is in view, the chapter has a cosmic flavor that suggests that the coming judgment is universal in scope. Perhaps Babylon’s downfall occurs in conjunction with a wider judgment, or the cosmic style is poetic hyperbole used to emphasize the magnitude and importance of the coming event.
