30 And Yahweh will cause the majesty of his voice to be heard,

and he will cause the descent of his arm to be seen,

in furious anger and a flame of devouring fire,

with a cloudburst and a rainstorm and stonesh of hail.

31 Indeed, Assyria will be shattered by the voice of Yahweh;

he strikes with the rod.

32 And every stroke of the staff of foundationi that Yahweh lays will be on it with timbrels and lyres,

and he will fight against itj with battles of brandishing.

33 For Topheth has been prepared from yesterday;

indeed, it is made ready for the king.

He makes its pile of wood deep and wide;

he makes fire and wood abundant.k

The breath of Yahweh burns in it like a stream of sulfur.
