14You will see, you will rejoice,

and youB will flourish like grass;f

then the Lord’s power will be revealed to his servants,

but he will show his wrath against his enemies.

15Look, the Lord will come with fireg—

his chariots are like the whirlwindh—

to execute his anger with fury

and his rebuke with flames of fire.

16For the Lord will execute judgment

on all humanityi with his fiery sword,

and many will be slain by the Lord.

You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice;

your bones shall flourish like the grass;

and the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants,

and he shall show his indignation against his enemies.

and his chariots like the whirlwind,

and those slain by the Lord shall be many.

and you will flourish like grass;

the hand of the Lord will be made known to his servants,

but his fury will be shown to his foes.

See, the Lord is coming with fire,

and his chariots are like a whirlwind;

he will bring down his anger with fury,

and his rebuke with flames of fire.

the Lord will execute judgment on all people,

and many will be those slain by the Lord.

NLTNew Living Translation

When you see these things, your heart will rejoice.

You will flourish like the grass!

Everyone will see the Lord’s hand of blessing on his servants—

and his anger against his enemies.

See, the Lord is coming with fire,

and his swift chariots roar like a whirlwind.

He will bring punishment with the fury of his anger

and the flaming fire of his hot rebuke.

The Lord will punish the world by fire

and by his sword.

He will judge the earth,

and many will be killed by him.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

And you shall see and your heart shall rejoice,

and your bones shall flourish like the grass,

and the hand of Yahweh shall make itself known to his servants,

and he shall curse his enemies.

For look! Yahweh will come in fire,

and his chariots like the storm wind,

to give back his anger in wrath,

and his rebuke in flames of fire.

For Yahweh enters into judgment on all flesh with fire and his sword,

and those slain by Yahweh shall be many.

KJV 1900King James Version

And when ye see this, your heart shall rejoice,

And your bones shall flourish like an herb:

And the hand of the Lord shall be known toward his servants,

And his indignation toward his enemies.

For, behold, the Lord will come with fire,

And with his chariots like a whirlwind,

To render his anger with fury,

And his rebuke with flames of fire.

For by fire and by his sword will the Lord plead with all flesh:

And the slain of the Lord shall be many.
