22. My strong hand won’t spare sinners, nor will my sword stop fighting against those who spill innocent blood on earth.
23. God’s anger has gone forth like fire to devour the earth’s foundations and sinners like kindled straw.
24. How terrible it will be for those who sin and don’t keep my laws, says the Lord.
25. I won’t spare them. Go away, faithless children! Don’t defile my sanctuary!
26. God knows all who sin against him. Therefore, he will hand them over to death and slaughter.
27. Even now disasters have swept over the world, and you will have to endure them. God won’t deliver you because you sinned against him.
28. Look! A terrible sight is appearing from the east!
