10. Now will I arise, saith Hashem; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up Myself.
11. Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth straw; your ruach (breath), as eish, shall devour you.
12. And the peoples shall be as the burnings of lime; as thorns cut up shall they be burned in the eish.
13. Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My gevurah (might).
14. The chatta'im (sinners) in Tziyon are terrified; trembling hath seized the khanafim (hypocrites). Who among us can dwell with the devouring eish? Who among us can dwell with mokedei olam (everlasting burnings, see Dan 12:2)?
15. He that walketh in tzedakot, and speaketh meisharim (right things), he that despiseth the gain of extortions, that guards his palms from accepting shochad (bribe[s]), that stoppeth his ozen from hearing of dahm, and shutteth his eynayim from seeing rah;
16. He shall dwell on high; his metzadot shall be the rocky fortress; his lechem shall be given him; his mayim shall be unfailing.
17. Thine eynayim shall see Melech in His yafeh (beauty); they shall behold eretz that is very far off.
18. Thine lev shall ponder terror. Where is the sofer (scribe)? Where is he who weighs [for Assyrian tax collection]? Where is he that counts the migdalim (towers)?
