Behold, the
name of the
LORD comes from a
remote place;
Burning is His
anger and
dense is His
smoke; His
lips are
filled with
indignation And His
tongue is like a
consuming fire;

His
breath is like an
overflowing torrent, Which
reaches to the
neck, To
shake the
nations back and
forth in a
sieve, And to put in the
jaws of the
peoples the
bridle which
leads to
ruin.

You will
have songs as in the
night when you
keep the
festival, And
gladness of
heart as when one
marches to the sound of the
flute, To
go to the
mountain of the
LORD, to the
Rock of
Israel.

And the
LORD will cause His
voice of
authority to be
heard, And the
descending of His
arm to be
seen in
fierce anger, And in the
flame of a
consuming fire In
cloudburst,
downpour and hailstones.

For at the
voice of the
LORD Assyria will be
terrified, When He
strikes with the
rod.

And
every blow of the
rod of
punishment,
Which the
LORD will
lay on him, Will be with the music of
tambourines and
lyres; And in
battles,
brandishing weapons, He will
fight them.

For
Topheth has
long been
ready,
Indeed, it has been
prepared for the
king. He has
made it
deep and
large, A
pyre of
fire with
plenty of
wood; The
breath of the
LORD, like a
torrent of
brimstone,
sets it
afire.
