Then[a] you shall be low;
    you shall speak from the earth,
    and your words[b] will be low, from dust.
And your voice will be from the earth, like a ghost,
    and your word will whisper from the dust.
But[c] the multitude of your strangers shall be like fine dust,
    and the multitude of tyrants like chaff that passes by.

And it will happen in an instant, suddenly.

You will be punished by Yahweh of hosts

with thunder and earthquake and great sound,
    storm wind and tempest and the flame of a devouring fire.
