30 And the Lord will make his majestic voice heard.
He will display the strength of his mighty arm.
It will descend with devouring flames,
with cloudbursts, thunderstorms, and huge hailstones.
31 At the Lord’s command, the Assyrians will be shattered.
He will strike them down with his royal scepter.
32 And as the Lord strikes them with his rod of punishment,[a]
his people will celebrate with tambourines and harps.
Lifting his mighty arm, he will fight the Assyrians.

the pyre is piled high with wood.
The breath of the Lord, like fire from a volcano,
will set it ablaze.

so few that a child could count them!
