8:9 You will be broken,
you will be shattered!
Pay attention, all you distant lands of the earth!
Get ready for battle, and you will be shattered!
Get ready for battle, and you will be shattered!
8:10 Devise your strategy, but it will be thwarted!
Issue your orders, but they will not be executed!
For God is with us!
10:7 But he does not agree with this,
his mind does not reason this way,
for his goal is to destroy,
and to eliminate many nations.
10:8 Indeed,
“Are not my officials all kings?
10:9 Is not Calneh like Carchemish?
Hamath like Arpad?
Samaria like Damascus?
10:10 I overpowered kingdoms ruled by idols,
whose carved images were more impressive than Jerusalem’s
10:11 As I have done to Samaria and its idols,
so I will do to Jerusalem and its idols.”
10:12 But when
“By my strong hand I have accomplished this,
by my strategy that I devised.
I invaded the territory of nations,
and looted their storehouses.
Like a mighty conqueror,
10:14 My hand discovered the wealth of the nations, as if it were in a nest,
as one gathers up abandoned eggs,
I gathered up the whole earth.
There was no wing flapping,
or open mouth chirping.”
17:13 Though these people make an uproar as loud as the roaring of powerful waves,
when he shouts at
driven before the wind like dead weeds on the hills,
or like dead thistles
29:5 But the horde of invaders will be like fine dust,
the horde of tyrants
It will happen suddenly, in a flash.
29:6 Judgment will come from the Lord who commands armies,
accompanied by thunder, earthquake, and a loud noise,
by a strong gale, a windstorm, and a consuming flame of fire.
29:7 It will be like a dream, a night vision.
There will be a horde from all the nations that fight against Ariel,
those who attack her and her stronghold and besiege her.
29:8 It will be like a hungry man dreaming that he is eating,
only to awaken and find that his stomach is empty.
It will be like a thirsty man dreaming that he is drinking,
only to awaken and find that he is still weak and his thirst unquenched.
So it will be for the horde from all the nations
that fight against Mount Zion.
59:4 No one is concerned about justice;
no one sets forth his case truthfully.
They depend on false words
they conceive of oppression
and give birth to sin.
15:35 They conceive
their belly
2:1 Why
Why
7:14 See the one who is pregnant with wickedness,
who conceives destructive plans,
and gives birth to harmful lies –
83:5 Yes,
they form an alliance
83:6 It includes
Moab and the Hagrites,
83:7 Gebal,
Philistia and the inhabitants of Tyre.
83:8 Even Assyria has allied with them,
lending its strength to the descendants of Lot.
83:9 Do to them as you did to Midian
as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River!
83:10 They were destroyed at Endor;
their corpses were like manure
83:11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
and all their rulers like Zebah and Zalmunna,
83:12 who said,
83:13 O my God, make them like dead thistles,
like dead weeds blown away by
83:14 Like the fire that burns down the forest,
or the flames that consume the mountainsides,
83:15 chase them with your gale winds,
and terrify
83:16 Cover
so they might seek
83:17 May they be humiliated and continually terrified!
May they die in shame!
83:18 Then they will know
the sovereign king
