14 And I will smash them, each one against his brother, and the fathers and the sons together,” declares[a] Yahweh. “I will not have compassion, and I will not take pity, and I will not show compassion from destroying them.”’”

15 Listen, and pay attention,
    you must not be haughty, for Yahweh has spoken.

    and before[c] your feet stumble on the mountains at twilight.
And you will hope for light, but he makes it as gloom,
    he makes it[d] as thick darkness.
