³ Though they take cover on the top of Carmel, I will go in search of them and get them out; though they keep themselves from my eyes in the bed of the sea, I will give orders to the great snake there and he will give them a bite:

¹⁶ See, I will send for great numbers of fishermen, says the Lord, and they will take them like fish in a net; and after that, I will send for numbers of bowmen, and they will go after them, driving them from every mountain and from every hill, and out of the holes of the rocks.

²² There is no dark place, and no thick cloud, in which the workers of evil may take cover.

¹ In that day the Lord, with his great and strong and cruel sword, will send punishment on Leviathan, the quick-moving snake, and on Leviathan, the twisted snake; and he will put to death the dragon which is in the sea.

⁹ If I take the wings of the morning, and go to the farthest parts of the sea;

¹⁰ Even there will I be guided by your hand, and your right hand will keep me.

¹¹ If I say, Only let me be covered by the dark, and the light about me be night;

²³ Am I only a God who is near, says the Lord, and not a God at a distance?

²⁴ In what secret place may a man take cover without my seeing him? says the Lord. Is there any place in heaven or earth where I am not? says the Lord.

² And he said, The Lord will give a lion's cry from Zion, his voice will be sounding from Jerusalem; and the fields of the keepers of sheep will become dry, and the top of Carmel will be wasted away.
