¹⁶ And they say to the mountains and to the rocks, Come down on us, covering us from the face of him who is seated on the high seat, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

³⁰ And they will say to the mountains, Come down on us, and to the hills, Be a cover over us.

⁸ And the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will come to destruction; thorns and waste plants will come up on their altars; they will say to the mountains, Be a cover over us; and to the hills, Come down on us.

⁹ And when the beasts give glory and honour to him who is seated on the high seat, to him who is living for ever and ever,

² Straight away I was in the Spirit: and I saw a high seat in heaven, and one was seated on it;

¹¹ And I saw a great white seat, and him who was seated on it, before whose face the earth and the heaven went in flight; and there was no place for them.

¹⁵ And out of his mouth comes a sharp sword, with which he overcomes the nations: and he has rule over them with a rod of iron: and he is crushing with his feet the grapes of the strong wrath of God the Ruler of all.

⁶ And took his oath by him who is living for ever and ever, who made the heaven and the things in it, and the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that there would be no more waiting:

¹⁰ And they gave a great cry, saying, How long will it be, O Ruler, holy and true, before you take your place as judge and give punishment for our blood to those on the earth?

⁵ And out of the high seat came flames and voices and thunders. And seven lights of fire were burning before the high seat, which are the seven Spirits of God;

⁷ And to you who are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus comes from heaven with the angels of his power in flames of fire,

⁸ To give punishment to those who have no knowledge of God, and to those who do not give ear to the good news of our Lord Jesus:

⁹ Whose reward will be eternal destruction from the face of the Lord and from the glory of his strength,

⁶⁴ Jesus says to him, You say so: but I say to you, From now you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.

¹⁴ And the angel who was talking to me said to me, Let your voice be loud and say, These are the words of the Lord of armies: I am greatly moved about the fate of Jerusalem and of Zion.

¹⁵ And I am very angry with the nations who are living untroubled: for when I was only a little angry, they made the evil worse.

³ And death will be desired more than life by the rest of this evil family who are still living in all the places where I have sent them away, says the Lord of armies.

⁵ In the day of his wrath kings will be wounded by the Lord at your right hand.

⁶ He will be judge among the nations, the valleys will be full of dead bodies; the head over a great country will be wounded by him.

⁸ Your hand will make a search for all your haters; your right hand will be hard on all those who are against you.

⁹ You will make them like a flaming oven before you; the Lord in his wrath will put an end to them, and they will be burned up in the fire.

¹⁰ Their fruit will be cut off from the earth, and their seed from among the children of men.

¹¹ For their thoughts were bitter against you: they had an evil design in their minds, which they were not able to put into effect.

¹² Their backs will be turned when you make ready the cords of your bow against their faces.

⁵ Then were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the upright.

⁹ They will be ruled by you with a rod of iron; they will be broken like a potter's vessel.

¹⁰ So now be wise, you kings: take his teaching, you judges of the earth.

¹¹ Give worship to the Lord with fear, kissing his feet and giving him honour,

¹² For fear that he may be angry, causing destruction to come on you, because he is quickly moved to wrath. Happy are all those who put their faith in him.
