Nation shall

Nation was crushed by nation, and city [was] against city, for God threw them into confusion by all [sorts of] trouble.

The land was burned through the wrath of Yahweh of hosts, and the people became like fire fuel. {People had no compassion toward each other}.

"And I will stir up {Egyptians} against {Egyptians}, and each one will fight against his brother and each one against his neighbor, city against city, kingdom against kingdom.

A ruin, a ruin, a ruin I will make it! Also this has not [ever] happened; [it will remain] until the coming of [the one] [to] whom the judgment belongs and I have given it [to him].'

"Say to Zerubbabel, governor of Judah: I [am] going to shake the heavens and the earth,

I will gather all the nations against Jerusalem to battle, and the city will be captured, and they will loot the houses, and the women will be raped; half of the city will go into exile, but the remainder of the people will not be cut off from the city.

Now the [phrase] "yet once [more]" indicates the removal of what is shaken, namely, things that have been created, in order that the things that are not shaken may remain.

Famines

The earth is utterly broken; [the] earth is torn asunder; [the] earth is shaken violently.

For thus says the Lord Yahweh: "How much more when I send my four punishments--the evil sword, and famine, and fierce animal, and a plague--to Jerusalem to cut it off, [both] human and animal!

And I will {set} wonders in the heavens, and on earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke.

On that day his feet will stand on {the Mount of Olives}, which faces Jerusalem on [the] east; and {the Mount of Olives} will be split {in half}, from east to west, [by] a very great valley; and half of the mountain will withdraw toward the north, and the other half toward the south.

There will be great earthquakes and famines and plagues in [various] places. There will be terrible sights and great signs from heaven.

And I will cause wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

And one of them {named} Agabus stood up [and] indicated by the Spirit [that] a great famine was about to come over the whole inhabited earth (which took place in the time of Claudius).

General references

You will be punished by Yahweh of hosts with thunder and earthquake and great sound, storm wind and tempest and [the] flame of a devouring fire.

Do you think that I have come to grant peace on the earth? No, I tell you, but rather division!
