The Judgment On The Earth

2 Then shall the priest be as the people, the master as the servant, the dame like the maid, the seller like the buyer, he that lendeth upon usury, like him that borroweth upon usury, the creditor as the debtor. 3 Yea miserably shall the world be wasted and clean destroyed. For the LORD hath so determined in himself. 4 The earth shall be heavy and decay: The face of the earth shall perish and fall away, the proud people of the world shall come to naught.
