pay attention, O earth!
For the Lord speaks:

29:4 You will fall;
while lying on the ground
from the dust where you lie, your words will be heard.

We stir up
we tell lies we concocted in our minds.
63:1 Who is this who comes from Edom,
dressed in bright red, coming from Bozrah?
Who
who marches confidently
“It is I, the one who announces vindication,
and who is able to deliver!”
