Coming Conqueror

41 “Be silent before Me, O islands!
Let peoples renew their strength.
Let them draw near, then let them speak.

Who has stirred up one from the east?
He calls justice to His feet.
He gives nations over to him and subdues kings.
He makes them like dust with his sword, as driven stubble with his bow.

    to windblown chaff(K) with his bow.(L)
