20 Come, my people, enter into your rooms,
    and shut your doors behind you.
Hide yourself for a little moment,
    until the indignation is past.
21 For, behold, Yahweh comes out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity.
    The earth also will disclose her blood, and will no longer cover her slain.

27 In that day, Yahweh with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan, the fleeing serpent, and leviathan the twisted serpent; and he will kill the dragon that is in the sea.

20 Go, my people, enter your rooms
and close your doors behind you.
Hide for a little while until the wrath has passed.(A)
21 For look, the Lord is coming from his place(B)
to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity.(C)
The earth will reveal the blood shed on it
and will no longer conceal her slain.
