25 Therefore the Lord’s anger burns against his people;

his hand is raised and he strikes them down.

The mountains shake,

and the dead bodies are like refuse in the streets.

Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,

his hand is still upraised.

26 He lifts up a banner for the distant nations,

he whistles for those at the ends of the earth.

Here they come,

swiftly and speedily!

25 Therefore is the anger of the Lord kindled against his people,

And he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them:

And the hills did tremble, and their carcases were torn in the midst of the streets.

For all this his anger is not turned away,

But his hand is stretched out still.

26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far,

And will hiss unto them from the end of the earth:

And, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly:

25 That is why the Lord’s anger burns against his people,

and why he has raised his fist to crush them.

The mountains tremble,

and the corpses of his people litter the streets like garbage.

But even then the Lord’s anger is not satisfied.

His fist is still poised to strike!

26 He will send a signal to distant nations far away

and whistle to those at the ends of the earth.

They will come racing toward Jerusalem.

25 Therefore the anger of the Lord is aroused against His people;

He has stretched out His hand against them

And stricken them,

And the hills trembled.

Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets.

For all this His anger is not turned away,

But His hand is stretched out still.

26 He will lift up a banner to the nations from afar,

And will whistle to them from the end of the earth;

Surely they shall come with speed, swiftly.

25 So the Lord has become very angry with his people,

and he has raised his hand to punish them.

Even the mountains are frightened.

Dead bodies lie in the streets like garbage.

But the Lord is still angry;

his hand is still raised to strike down the people.

26 He raises a banner for the nations far away.

He whistles to call those people from the ends of the earth.

Look! The enemy comes quickly!

25 Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them; and the mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.

26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss for them from the end of the earth; and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly.

25 Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he hath stretched out his hand against them and hath smitten them; and the mountains trembled, and their carcases are become as dung in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still. 26 And he will lift up a banner to the nations afar off, and will hiss for one from the end of the earth; and behold, it will come rapidly and lightly.

25 That’s why the anger of the Lord burns hot against his people, 

and he is ready to use his power to strike them down. 

The hills tremble, 

and dead bodies lie like garbage in the streets. 

Even after all this, his anger has not disappeared, 

and he is still ready to use his power. 

26 The Lord raises up a flag for the nations far away. 

With a whistle he signals those at the ends of the earth. 

Look, they are coming very quickly! 

25 Therefore the Lord’s anger burns against His people.

He raised His hand against them and struck them;

the mountains quaked,

and their corpses were like garbage in the streets.

In all this, His anger is not removed,

and His hand is still raised to strike.

26 He raises a signal flag for the distant nations

and whistles for them from the ends of the earth.

Look—how quickly and swiftly they come!

25 Therefore the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people,

and he stretched out his hand against them and struck them;

the mountains quaked,

and their corpses were like refuse

in the streets.

For all this his anger has not turned away,

and his hand is stretched out still.

26 He will raise a signal for a nation far away,

and whistle for a people at the ends of the earth;

Here they come, swiftly, speedily!

25 Therefore Yahweh’s wrath was kindled against his people,

and he stretched out his hand against them and struck them,

and the mountains quaked,

and their corpses were like refuse in the middle of the streets.

In all of this his anger has not turned back,

and still his hand is stretched out.

26 And he will raise a signal for a nation from afar,

and he will whistle for it from the end of the earth.

And look! It comes quickly, swiftly!

25 So the Lord’s anger burns against his people.

He raises his hand against them. He strikes them down.

The mountains shake.

The bodies of dead people lie in the streets like trash.

Even then, the Lord is still angry.

His hand is still raised against them.

26 He lifts up a banner to gather the nations that are far away.

He whistles for them to come

from the farthest places on earth.

Here they come.

They are moving very quickly.

25 On this account the anger of the Lord has burned against His people,

And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them down.

And the mountains quaked, and their corpses lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.

For all this His anger is not spent,

But His hand is still stretched out.

26 He will also lift up a standard to the distant nation,

And will whistle for it from the ends of the earth;

And behold, it will come with speed swiftly.
