26. Moreover the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun,And the light of the sun will be sevenfold,As the light of seven days,In the day that the Lord binds up the bruise of His peopleAnd heals the stroke of their wound.
27. Behold, the name of the Lord comes from afar,Burning with His anger,And His burden is heavy;His lips are full of indignation,And His tongue like a devouring fire.
28. His breath is like an overflowing stream,Which reaches up to the neck,To sift the nations with the sieve of futility;And there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people,Causing them to err.
29. You shall have a songAs in the night when a holy festival is kept,And gladness of heart as when one goes with a flute,To come into the mountain of the Lord,To the Mighty One of Israel.
30. The Lord will cause His glorious voice to be heard,And show the descent of His arm,With the indignation of His angerAnd the flame of a devouring fire,With scattering, tempest, and hailstones.
31. For through the voice of the LordAssyria will be beaten down,As He strikes with the rod.
32. And in every place where the staff of punishment passes,Which the Lord lays on him,It will be with tambourines and harps;And in battles of brandishing He will fight with it.
33. For Tophet was established of old,Yes, for the king it is prepared.He has made it deep and large;Its pyre is fire with much wood;The breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone,Kindles it.
