1. Be silent and listen,every island in the sea.Have courage and come near,every one of you nations.Let's settle this matter!
2. Who appointed this rulerfrom the east?Who puts nations and kingsin his power?His sword and his arrowsturn them to dustblown by the wind.
3. He goes after them so quicklythat his feetbarely touch the ground—he doesn't even get hurt.
4. Who makes these things happen?Who controls human events?I do! I am the Lord.I was there at the beginning;I will be there at the end.
