Isaiah 42:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ The Lord is marching out
    like an angry soldier,
shouting with all his might
    while attacking his enemies.

¹⁴ For a long time, I, the Lord,
    have held my temper;
now I will cry out and groan
    like a woman giving birth.
¹⁵ I will destroy the mountains
    and what grows on them;
I will dry up rivers and ponds.
