25. On every lofty mountain, and on every high hill, streams will run with water on the day of the great massacre, when the towers fall.
26. The light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter—like the light of seven days—on the day that the Lord bandages the people’s brokenness and heals the wounds inflicted by his blows.
27. Look there! The Lord is coming from far away;his anger blazing, his smoke-cloud thick.His lips are full of fury;his tongue is like a devouring fire.
28. His breath is like a raging river that reaches up to the neck,to shake the nations with a sieve of destruction,and to put a misleading rein on the people’s jaws.
29. There will be singing for youas on the night that people celebrate a festival.The heart will be joyful as it is when one goes with a fluteto the Lord’s mountain,to the rock of Israel.
30. The Lord will unleash his majestic voiceand display his crushing armin furious anger, with a flame of consuming fire,in stormy rain and hail.
31. The Lord’s voice will terrify Assyria;with a rod he will smite it.
