14I am the Lord who rules over all.
I have made a promise with an oath in my own name.
I have said, ‘I will certainly fill your land with soldiers.
They will be as many as a huge number of locusts.
They will win the battle over you.
They will shout for joy.’
15“I used my power to make the earth.
I used my wisdom to set the world in place.
I used my understanding to spread the heavens out.
16When I thunder, the waters in the heavens roar.
I make clouds rise from one end of the earth to the other.
I send lightning with the rain.
I bring out the wind from my storerooms.

ESVEnglish Standard Version
The Lord of hosts has sworn by himself:
Surely I will fill you with men, as many as locusts,
and they shall raise the shout of victory over you.
“It is he who made the earth by his power,
who established the world by his wisdom,
and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.
When he utters his voice there is a tumult of waters in the heavens,
and he makes the mist rise from the ends of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain,
and he brings forth the wind from his storehouses.

and stretched out the heavens by his understanding.
When he thunders, the waters in the heavens roar;

and brings out the wind from his storehouses.

I will fill you up with men as with locusts,
and they will sing the victory song over you.
He made the earth by his power,
established the world by his wisdom,
and spread out the heavens by his understanding.
When he thunders,
the waters in the heavens are tumultuous,

to rise from the ends of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain

NLTNew Living Translation
The Lord of Heaven’s Armies has taken this vow
and has sworn to it by his own name:
“Your cities will be filled with enemies,
like fields swarming with locusts,
and they will shout in triumph over you.”
The Lord made the earth by his power,
and he preserves it by his wisdom.
With his own understanding
he stretched out the heavens.
When he speaks in the thunder,
the heavens roar with rain.
He causes the clouds to rise over the earth.
He sends the lightning with the rain
and releases the wind from his storehouses.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible
Yahweh of hosts has sworn by himself,
“Surely I will fill you with troops like the creeping locusts,
and they will sing over you a war cry.”
He is the one who made the earth by his power,
the one who created the world by his wisdom,
and by his understanding he stretched out the heavens.
At the giving of his voice
there is a roar of waters in the heavens,
and he causes the patches of mist
to go up from the end of the earth.
He makes lightning for the rain,
and he brings out the wind from his storehouses.

KJV 1900King James Version
The Lord of hosts hath sworn by himself, saying,
Surely I will fill thee with men, as with caterpillers;
And they shall lift up a shout against thee.
He hath made the earth by his power,
He hath established the world by his wisdom,
And hath stretched out the heaven by his understanding.
When he uttereth his voice, there is a multitude of waters in the heavens;
And he causeth the vapours to ascend from the ends of the earth:
He maketh lightnings with rain,
And bringeth forth the wind out of his treasures.
