The Destruction of Israel
1I saw the Lord standing beside ▼▼Or on
the altar, and he said: k“Strike the capitals until lthe thresholds mshake,
nand shatter them on the heads of all the people; ▼
▼Hebrew all of them
and those who are left of them I will kill with the sword;
pnot one of them shall flee away;
not one of them shall escape.
2 q“If they dig into Sheol,
from there shall my hand take them;
rif they climb up to heaven,
from there I will bring them down.
3If they hide themselves on sthe top of Carmel,
from there I will search them out and take them;
tand if they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea,
there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them.
