21 For Yahweh will rise up as at Mount (A)Perazim;
He will be stirred up as in the valley of (B)Gibeon,
To work His (C)work, His [a](D)unusual work,
And to labor in His labor, His [b]exceptional labor.
22 So now do not carry on as (E)scoffers,
Lest your fetters be made stronger;
For I have heard from Lord Yahweh of hosts
Of complete (F)destruction, one that is decreed, on all the earth.

23 Give ear and hear my voice,
Pay attention and hear my words.

21 The Lord will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim,(A)
    he will rouse himself as in the Valley of Gibeon(B)
to do his work,(C) his strange work,
    and perform his task, his alien task.
22 Now stop your mocking,(D)
    or your chains will become heavier;
the Lord, the Lord Almighty, has told me
    of the destruction decreed(E) against the whole land.(F)

23 Listen(G) and hear my voice;
    pay attention and hear what I say.
