12 Woe to the multitude of many people
    who make a noise like the noise of the seas,
and the rushing of many peoples
    who make a rumble like the rumbling of mighty waters!
13 The nations rumble like the rumbling of many waters;
    but God shall rebuke them, and they shall flee far off,
and shall be chased as the chaff of the mountains before the wind,
    and like rolling dust before the whirlwind.
14 At evening time, sudden terror!
    And before the morning, they are no more.
This is the portion of those who plunder us,
    and the lot of those who rob us.
