Nice usage of darkness to highlight the bright yellow letters. The idea of a volcano leaking words instead of magma creates a grand visual. I like the titular reversal of the famous Bible verse too, with the implication that these words will doom the world.
Only thing I would criticize is the words' seemingly solid textures. I feel like if they were more liquid-like on the ground and gaseous in the air, they'd look a little more effective and naturally indicative of something connected to the volcano.

Dark, moody, apocalyptic; the Earth is speaking to us and we won't like what it has to say. I agree the words could have been harmonized more with the background. I take it this is based on a real location, judging by the copyright notice. This will go in my top slate, thanks for creating it!
This was my early favorite. I love the 40K Necron vibes I get from this. Heck, recolor the runes to green and this would scan perfectly as 40k fanart.
It’s strong and stylish beyond that, too.

In which words will not just break bones but also melt them.
This is very good as a piece of art, with my only gripe being that the words on the ground seem a bit too obviously Photoshopped (maybe lower the Alpha/transparency/whatchacallit levels on it so it blends in more with the ground)? Other than that—yup! I like that you probably used a Google Maps/Street View image for this (at least, that's what I can tell from the info on the bottom-left corner): thinking outside the box, that's for sure!

In the End Was the Word
Thanks for the great comments and the silver, y'all.
This is the volcano of Augustine Island, Alaska. I altered the vertical height in Google Earth for a dramatic effect (though it is impressive enough in its own right), and overlaid font effects with Illustrator and Photoshop. The font is called Alphabet of the Magi, and the words that are dooming the Earth are the lyrics to These Are Days by 10,000 Maniacs.
