I
saw the
Lord standing upon the
altar: and he
said,
Smite the lintel of the
door, that the
posts may
shake: and
cut them in the
head, all of them; and I will
slay the
last of them with the
sword: he that
fleeth of them shall not flee
away, and he that
escapeth of them shall not be
delivered.

Though they
dig into
hell, thence shall mine
hand take them; though they climb
up to
heaven, thence will I bring them
down:

And though they
hide themselves in the
top of
Carmel, I will
search and take them
out thence; and though they be
hid from my
sight in the
bottom of the
sea, thence will I
command the
serpent, and he shall
bite them:

And though they
go into
captivity before their
enemies, thence will I
command the
sword, and it shall
slay them: and I will
set mine
eyes upon them for
evil, and not for
good.

And the
Lord GOD of
hosts is he that
toucheth the
land, and it shall
melt, and all that
dwell therein shall
mourn: and it shall rise
up wholly like a
flood; and shall be
drowned, as by the
flood of
Egypt.

It is he that
buildeth his
stories in the
heaven, and hath
founded his
troop in the

calleth for the
waters of the
sea, and poureth them
out upon the

LORD is his

Are ye not as
children of the
Ethiopians unto me, O
children of
Israel? saith the
LORD. Have not I brought
up Israel out of the
land of
Egypt? and the
Philistines from
Caphtor, and the
Syrians from
Kir?

Behold, the
eyes of the
Lord GOD are upon the
sinful kingdom, and I will
destroy it from off the

earth; saving that I will not
utterly destroy the
house of
Jacob, saith the
LORD.

For, lo, I will
command, and I will

Israel among all
nations, like as corn is
sifted in a

grain fall upon the
earth.

In that

And I will bring
again the
captivity of my

make gardens, and
eat the
fruit of them.
