Behold, the name of the LORDcometh from far,burning with his anger, and the burden thereof is heavy: his lips are full of indignation, and his tongue as a devouringfire:
28
And his breath, as an overflowingstream, shall reach to the midst of the neck, to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity: and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people, causing them to err.
29
Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holysolemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth with a pipe to come into the mountain of the LORD, to the mighty One of Israel.
30
And the LORD shall cause his gloriousvoice to be heard, and shall shew the lighting down of his arm, with the indignation of his anger, and with the flame of a devouringfire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones*.
31
For through the voice of the LORD shall the Assyrian be beaten down, which smote with a rod.

32
And in every place where the groundedstaff shall pass, which the LORD shall lay upon him, it shall be with tabrets and harps: and in battles of shaking will he fight with it.
33
For Tophet is ordained of old; yea, for the king it is prepared; he hath made it deep and large: the pile thereof is fire and muchwood; the breath of the LORD, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindle it.
