13 The Lord looks down from heaven;
He observes everyone.(A)
14 He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth
from His dwelling place.(B)
15 He alone shapes their hearts;
He considers all their works.(C)

Fifth Vision: The Lord beside the Altar

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar,(A) and He said:

Strike the capitals of the pillars(B)
so that the thresholds shake;
knock them down on the heads of all the people.
Then I will kill the rest of them with the sword.(C)
None of those who flee will get away;(D)
none of the fugitives will escape.
If they dig down to Sheol,(E)
from there My hand will take them;
if they climb up to heaven,(F)
from there I will bring them down.
If they hide themselves
on the top of Carmel,
from there I will track them down(G)
and seize them;
if they conceal themselves
from My sight on the sea floor,(H)
from there I will command
the sea serpent to bite them.(I)
And if they are driven
by their enemies into captivity,(J)
from there I will command
the sword to kill them.(K)
I will fix My eyes on them
for harm and not for good.(L)
