18 But none of these prophets has stood in the heavenly council.[a]
    None of them has seen or heard the message from the Lord.
    None of them has paid close attention to his message.
19 Now the punishment from the Lord will come like a storm.
    His anger will be like a tornado.
    It will come crashing down on the heads of those wicked people.
20 The Lord’s anger will not stop
    until he finishes what he plans to do.
When that day is over,
    you will understand this clearly.
