4. And Your plunder shall be gatheredLike the gathering of the caterpillar;As the running to and fro of locusts,He shall run upon them.
5. The Lord is exalted, for He dwells on high;He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6. Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,And the strength of salvation;The fear of the Lord is His treasure.
7. Surely their valiant ones shall cry outside,The ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8. The highways lie waste,The traveling man ceases.He has broken the covenant,He has despised the cities,He regards no man.
9. The earth mourns and languishes,Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;Sharon is like a wilderness,And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
