The Coming Destruction

(A)Hear, you peoples, all of you;[a]
    (B)pay attention, O earth, and all that is in it,
and (C)let the Lord God be a witness against you,
    (D)the Lord from his holy temple.
For behold, (E)the Lord is coming out of (F)his place,
    and will come down and (G)tread upon the high places of the earth.
And (H)the mountains will melt under him,
    and the valleys will split open,
like wax before the fire,
    like waters poured down a steep place.
