13 For he says:
“By the strength of my hand I have done it,
and by my wisdom, for I have understanding;
I have removed the boundaries of peoples
and have plundered their treasures;
like a bull I have brought down those who sat on thrones.(A)
14 My hand has found, like a nest,
the wealth of the peoples,
and as one gathers eggs that have been forsaken,
so I have gathered all the earth,
and there was none that moved a wing
or opened its mouth or chirped.”(B)

“‘By the strength of my hand(A) I have done this,(B)
and by my wisdom, because I have understanding.
I removed the boundaries of nations,
I plundered their treasures;(C)
like a mighty one I subdued[a] their kings.(D)
14 As one reaches into a nest,(E)
so my hand reached for the wealth(F) of the nations;
as people gather abandoned eggs,
so I gathered all the countries;(G)
not one flapped a wing,
or opened its mouth to chirp.(H)’”

and was appalled that there was no one to intervene,
so his own arm brought him victory,
and his righteousness upheld him.(A)
17 He put on righteousness like a breastplate
and a helmet of salvation on his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing
and wrapped himself in fury as in a mantle.(B)
18 According to their deeds, so will he repay
wrath to his adversaries, requital to his enemies;
to the coastlands he will render requital.(C)

they thunder like the thundering of the sea!
The roar of nations,
they roar like the roaring of mighty waters!(A)

he will rebuke them, and they will flee far away,
chased like chaff on the mountains before the wind

Before morning, they are no more.
This is the fate of those who despoil us
and the lot of those who plunder us.(C)

29 Because you have raged against me
and your arrogance has come to my ears,
I will put my hook in your nose
and my bit in your mouth;
I will turn you back on the way
by which you came.(A)
30 “And this shall be the sign for you: This year eat what grows of itself and in the second year what springs from that; then in the third year sow, reap, plant vineyards, and eat their fruit. 31 The surviving remnant of the house of Judah shall again take root downward and bear fruit upward,(B) 32 for from Jerusalem a remnant shall go out and from Mount Zion a band of survivors. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.(C)
