21Your ears will hear a word behind you, “This is the way, walk in it,” whenever you turn to the right or to the left. 22And you will defile your graven images overlaid with silver, and your molten images plated with gold. You will scatter them as an impure thing, and say to them, “Be gone!”

      23Then He will give you rain for the seed which you will sow in the ground, and bread from the yield of the ground, and it will be rich and plenteous; on that day your livestock will graze in a roomy pasture. 24Also the oxen and the donkeys which work the ground will eat salted fodder, which has been winnowed with shovel and fork. 25On every lofty mountain and on every high hill there will be streams running with water on the day of the great slaughter, when the towers fall. 26The light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, on the day the LORD binds up the fracture of His people and heals the bruise He has inflicted.

27Behold, the name of the LORD comes from a remote place;
         Burning is His anger and dense is His smoke;
         His lips are filled with indignation
         And His tongue is like a consuming fire;

28His breath is like an overflowing torrent,
         Which reaches to the neck,
         To shake the nations back and forth in a sieve,
         And to put in the jaws of the peoples the bridle which leads to ruin.

29You will have songs as in the night when you keep the festival,
         And gladness of heart as when one marches to the sound of the flute,
         To go to the mountain of the LORD, to the Rock of Israel.

30And the LORD will cause His voice of authority to be heard,
         And the descending of His arm to be seen in fierce anger,
         And in the flame of a consuming fire
         In cloudburst, downpour and hailstones.

31For at the voice of the LORD Assyria will be terrified,
         When He strikes with the rod.

32And every blow of the rod of punishment,
         Which the LORD will lay on him,
         Will be with the music of tambourines and lyres;
         And in battles, brandishing weapons, He will fight them.

33For Topheth has long been ready,
         Indeed, it has been prepared for the king.
         He has made it deep and large,
         A pyre of fire with plenty of wood;
         The breath of the LORD, like a torrent of brimstone, sets it afire.
