Isaiah
Isaiah 24:21–23
21In that day the LORD will punish
the host of heaven above
and the kings of the earth below.
22They will be gathered together
like prisoners in a pit.
They will be confined to a dungeon
and punished after many days.
23The moon will be confounded
and the sun will be ashamed;
for the LORD of Hosts will reign
on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
and before His elders with great glory.
