He that dasheth in
pieces is come
up before thy
face: keep the
munition, watch the
way, make thy
loins strong,
fortify thy
power mightily.

For the
LORD hath turned
away the
excellency of
Jacob, as the
excellency of
Israel: for the
emptiers have emptied them
out, and
marred their vine
branches.

shield of his mighty
men is made
red, the
valiant men are in
scarlet: the
chariots shall be with
flaming torches in the
day of his
preparation, and the fir
trees shall be terribly
shaken.

rage in the
streets, they shall justle one against
another in the broad
ways: they shall
seem like
torches, they shall
run like the
lightnings.

Stand,
