Disaster!

(John MacDuff, "A Book for the Bereaved")

"Does disaster come to a city, unless
 the Lord has done it?" Amos 3:6

"Does disaster come to a city," to the cottage,
to the palace--is there disaster which blights
some unknown poor man's dwelling--is there
disaster which clothes a nation in mourning,
"unless the Lord has done it?"

"I create both light and darkness; I make both
 blessing and disaster. I, the Lord, do all these
 things." Isaiah 45:7

"This is what the Lord says: As I brought all
 these disasters on these people." Jer. 32:42

"Therefore the Lord has brought all this
 disaster on them." 1 Kings 9:9

"Behold, I will bring disaster upon you.
 I will utterly burn you up." 1 Kings 21:21 

"Therefore thus says the Lord, the God of Israel:
 Behold, I am bringing upon Jerusalem and Judah
 such disaster that the ears of everyone who
 hears of it will tingle!" 2 Kings 21:12 

"Thus says the Lord, behold, I will bring disaster upon
 this place and upon its inhabitants." 2 Chronicles 34:24

"Hear, O earth; behold, I am bringing disaster 
 upon this people." Jeremiah 6:19
