And the mountains will melt under him, and the valleys will split open, like wax before the fire, like waters poured down a steep place.
The mountains quake before him; the hills melt; the earth heaves before him, the world and all who dwell in it.
The mountains melt like wax before the Lord, before the Lord of all the earth.
The mountains saw you and writhed; the raging waters swept on; the deep gave forth its voice; it lifted its hands on high.

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, and then the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the heavenly bodies will be burned up and dissolved, and the earth and the works that are done on it will be exposed. Since all these things are thus to be dissolved, what sort of people ought you to be in lives of holiness and godliness, waiting for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be set on fire and dissolved, and the heavenly bodies will melt as they burn!
