²⁴ Therefore saith the Lord, the Lord of hosts, the mighty One of Israel, Ah, I will ease me of mine adversaries, and avenge me of mine enemies:

⁸ For it is the day of the Lord's vengeance, and the year of recompences for the controversy of Zion.

³ Thy nakedness shall be uncovered, yea, thy shame shall be seen: I will take vengeance, and I will not meet thee as a man.

¹⁷ For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak.

² To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;

⁴ For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
