Therefore, a statement of the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Alas! I will be eased of My adversaries, and avenge Myself of My enemies.
The song shall be to you, as the night when the feast is sanctified, and gladness of heart, as one going with the flute, to come into the mount of Jehovah, to the Rock of Israel.
Say to those of a heart being hasty, Be strong! Do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance; with the full dealing of God, He will come and save you.
And I will make them eat their own flesh, those who oppress you; and they shall be drunk by their own blood, as with fresh wine. And all flesh shall know that I Jehovah am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.
You shall also suck the milk of nations, and you shall suck the breast of kings. And you shall know that I, Jehovah, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.
Their Redeemer is strong, Jehovah of Hosts is His name. Striving He shall strive in their strife, so that He may give rest to the land, and make to tremble those living in Babylon.
A third part of you shall die by the plague and shall be consumed by the famine in your midst. And a third part shall fall by the sword round about you. And a third part I will scatter into every wind, and I will draw out a sword after them.
And My anger shall be spent, and I will make My fury rest on them, and I will be eased. And they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in My zeal, in My completing My fury among them.
And it shall be, as Jehovah exulted over you to do you good, and to multiply you, so Jehovah shall exult over you to destroy you, and to lay you waste. And you shall be plucked from the land you are going to possess.
Rejoice, O nations, of His people; for He shall avenge the blood of His servants, and shall render vengeance to His adversaries, and shall have mercy on His land and His people.
Because of this, in one day her plagues shall come: death, and mourning, and famine; and she will be consumed with fire, for the Lord God, the One judging her, is strong.
