“Strike the capitals so that the ^(B)thresholds will quake,
And ^(C)break them on the heads of them all!
Then I will ^(D)kill the rest of them with the sword;
^(E)Not one of them who can flee will flee,
And not one of them who can survive will escape.
² Though they dig into ^(F)Sheol,
From there will My hand take them;
And though they ^(G)ascend to heaven,
From there will I bring them down.
³ And though they hide on the ^[a]top of Carmel,
From there I will ^(H)search them out and take them;
And though they ^(I)conceal themselves from My eyes on the floor of the sea,
From there I will command the ^(J)serpent, and it will bite them.
⁴ And though they go into ^(K)captivity before their enemies,
From there I will command the sword that it kill them,
And I will ^(L)set My eyes against them for evil and not for good.”
