Quote:
{80:33} But when there comes the Deafening Blast

I suggest,
{80:33} But when there comes the piercing call.

Quote:
{80:34} On the Day a man will flee from his brother

I suggest,
{80:34} [On] the Day one flees from his brother,

Quote:
{80:35} And his mother and his father

I'll just add a comma at the end to indicate continuation,
{80:35} And his mother and his father,

Quote:
{80:37} For every man, that Day, will be a matter adequate for him.

I suggest,
{80:37} For every one of them on that Day will be concern enough for him.

I would say "a concern that absorbs him" (or some other verb).

I suggest,
{80:37} For every person of them that Day is a concern [that] suffices him.
