- a voice of the LORD[YHWH]:
- "For¹ [it is] the dayª of the LORD'Sª vengeance,ª [and] the yearª of recompencesª for the controversyª of Zion.ª" {Isa 34:8} + "According¹ to² [their] deeds,ª accordingly¹ he will repay,ª° furyª to his adversaries,ª recompenceª to his enemies;ª° to the islandsª he will repayª° recompence.ª" {Isa 59:18} + "Which say,ª° Standª° by¹ thyself, come not nearª°¹ to me; for¹ I am holierª° than thou. These¹ [are] a smokeª in my nose,ª a fireª that burnethª° all¹ the day.ª ... Your iniquities,ª and the iniquitiesª of your fathersª together,ª saithª° the LORD,ª which¹ have burned incenseª° upon¹ the mountains,ª and blasphemedª° me upon¹ the hills:ª therefore will I measureª° their formerª workª into¹ their bosom.ª" {Isa 65:5-7} + "Behold,¹ I will raiseª° them out of¹ the placeª whither¹¹ ye have soldª° them, and will returnª° your recompenceª upon your own head:ª ... The LORDª also shall roarª° out of Zion,ª¹ and utterª° his voiceª from Jerusalem;ª¹ and the heavensª and the earthª shall shake:ª° but the LORDª [will be] the hopeª of his people,ª and the strengthª of the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Jol 3:7-16} + "And he said,ª° The LORDª will roarª° from Zion,ª¹ and utterª° his voiceª from Jerusalem;ª¹ and the habitationsª of the shepherdsª° shall mourn,ª° and the topª of Carmelª shall wither.ª° ... And [he that is] courageousªª among the mightyª shall flee awayª° nakedª in that¹ day,ª saithª° the LORD.ª" {Ams 1:2-2:16}
