²⁵ That’s why the anger of Yahweh burns hot against his people,
    and he is ready to use his power to strike them down.
    The hills tremble,
    and dead bodies lie like garbage in the streets.

Even after all this, his anger has not disappeared,
    and he is still ready to use his power.

²⁶ Yahweh raises up a flag for the nations far away.
    With a whistle he signals those at the ends of the earth.
        Look, they are coming very quickly!
²⁷ None of them grow tired or stumble.
    None of them slumber or sleep.
    The belts on their waists aren’t loose
        or their sandal straps broken.
