13 The (A)nations rumble on like the rumbling of many waters,
But He will (B)rebuke them, and they will flee far away,
And be chased (C)like chaff on the mountains before the wind,
Or like whirling dust before a gale.
14 At evening time, behold, there is terror!
Before morning (D)they are gone.
This will be the [a]fate of those who plunder us
And the lot of those who pillage us.

    Before the morning, they are gone!(H)
This is the portion of those who loot us,
    the lot of those who plunder us.
