Pour out thine indignation upon them, and let thy wrathful anger take hold of them.

Thou, even thou, art to be feared: and who may stand in thy sight when once thou art angry?

Who knoweth the power of thine anger? even according to thy fear, so is thy wrath.

Who can stand before his indignation? and who can abide in the fierceness of his anger? his fury is poured out like fire, and the rocks are thrown down by him.

Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and pour out their blood by the force of the sword; and let their wives be bereaved of their children, and be widows; and let their men be put to death; let their young men be slain by the sword in battle.

We are orphans and fatherless, our mothers are as widows.

Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.
