ISAIAH, THE CITIES ARE SHUT UP

This is very interesting, especially vs 10.

Isaiah 24, talking of the time around the burning:

10 The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.

11 There is a crying for wine in the streets; all ^ajoy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.

12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.

13 ¶ When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the ^apeople, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.

14 ^aThey shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the Lord, they shall cry aloud from the sea.

15 Wherefore glorify ye the Lord in the ^afires, even the name of the Lord God of Israel in the isles of the sea.

16 ¶ From the uttermost part of the earth have we heard songs, even glory to the righteous. But I said, ^aMy leanness, my leanness, woe unto me! the treacherous dealers have dealt treacherously; yea, ^bthe treacherous dealers have dealt very treacherously.

17 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee, O inhabitant of the earth.

18 And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows from on high are open, and the foundations of the earth do shake.

19 The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is ^amoved exceedingly.

20 The ^aearth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

21 And it shall come to pass in that ^aday, that the Lord shall ^bpunish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth.

22 And they shall be gathered together, as ^aprisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the ^bprison, and after many days shall they be ^cvisited.

23 Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ^aashamed, when the Lord of hosts shall reign in mount ^bZion, and in Jerusalem, and before ^chis ancients gloriously.
