13. I will make heaven tremble,and the earth will be shaken from its placewhen the Lord of Armies is angry.At that time he will be very angry.
14. They’ll be like hunted gazelleand like sheep with no one to gather them.Everyone will return to his own peopleand flee to his own land.
15. Whoever is found will be stabbed to death.Whoever is captured will be executed.
16. Their little children will be smashed to death right before their eyes.Their houses will be looted and their wives raped.
17. I’m going to stir up the Medes against them.They don’t care for silver and aren’t happy with gold.
18. But their bows will smash the youth.They’ll have no compassion for babies,nor will they look with pity on children.
