1. I saw the Lord standing beside the altar. And he said:Strike the capitalsso that the threshold shakes!Break them off on the heads of them all!Those who are left I will slay with the sword.Not one shall get away,no survivor shall escape.
2. Though they dig down to Sheol,even from there my hand shall take them;Though they climb to the heavens,even from there I shall bring them down.
3. Though they hide on the summit of Carmel,there too I will hunt them down and take them;Though they hide from my gaze at the bottom of the sea,there I will command the serpent to bite them.
4. Though they go into captivity before their enemies,there I will command the sword to slay them.I will fix my gaze upon themfor evil and not for good.
