27 Behold, (A)the name of Yahweh comes from afar;
(B)Burning is His anger and heavy is His [a]smoke;
His lips are filled with (C)indignation
And His tongue is like a (D)consuming fire;
28 His (E)breath is like an overflowing torrent,
Which (F)reaches to the neck,
To (G)shake the nations back and forth in a [b]sieve of worthlessness,
And to put in the jaws of the peoples (H)the bridle which staggers one to ruin.
29 You will have [c]songs as in the night when you set yourself apart as holy for the festival,
And gladness of heart as when one marches to the sound of the flute,
To go to the mountain of Yahweh, to the Rock of Israel.
