'Devastation' in the Bible

“Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy,Now I will arise,” says the Lord; “I will set him in the safety for which he longs.”

Now what will you do in the day of punishment,And in the devastation which will come from afar?To whom will you flee for help?And where will you leave your wealth?

These two things have befallen you;Who will mourn for you?The devastation and destruction, famine and sword;How shall I comfort you?

Their feet run to evil,And they hasten to shed innocent blood;Their thoughts are thoughts of iniquity,Devastation and destruction are in their highways.

“Violence will not be heard again in your land,Nor devastation or destruction within your borders;But you will call your walls salvation, and your gates praise.

“The sound of an outcry from Horonaim,‘Devastation and great destruction!’

Panic and pitfall have befallen us,Devastation and destruction;

But they do not know how to do what is right,” declares the Lord, “these who hoard up violence and devastation in their citadels.”

“For the violence done to Lebanon will overwhelm you,And the devastation of its beasts by which you terrified them,Because of human bloodshed and violence done to the land,To the town and all its inhabitants.
