The LORD God proclaims: In the company of many peoples I will spread my net over you, and I will haul you up in my dragnet.
4
I will cast you out on the earth and throw you on the open ground. I will cause all the birds in the sky to settle on you, and all the beasts of the earth to devour you.
5
Your flesh I will set upon the mountains, and I will fill the valleys with your gore.
