He repays them for what they have done, dispensing angry judgment to his adversaries and punishing his enemies. He repays the coastlands.

The sound of battle comes from the city; the sound comes from the temple! It is the sound of the Lord paying back his enemies.

The Lord is a zealous and avenging God; the Lord is avenging and very angry. The Lord takes vengeance against his foes; he sustains his rage against his enemies.
