5. I am sending disasters on you, and no one can stop them from coming.
6. Can anyone stop a hungry lion in the forest or put out a fire that is burning in straw
7. or turn back an arrow shot by a strong archer?
8. When the Lord God sends disaster, no one can hold it back.
9. No one can put out the blazing anger of the Lord.
10. When he sends lightning, no one can keep from trembling; and when it thunders, everyone is afraid.
11. When the Lord makes his threats, no one can keep from falling to the ground in his presence.
12. The foundations of the earth tremble. There is violent churning in the deepest part of the sea. Even the creatures in the sea are in turmoil when the Lord makes his glorious power felt.
13. He is like a mighty archer whose strong right arm bends the bow. His arrows are sharp and never miss their mark once they are shot out towards any part of the earth.
14. He has already sent out his disasters towards the earth, and they will not miss their target.
