And the flower of Lebanon wilts.

The hills melt,
And the earth1 heaves at His presence,
Yes, the world and all who dwell in it.

6 Who can stand before His indignation?
And awho can endure the fierceness of His anger?
His fury is poured out like fire,
And the rocks are thrown down by Him.

He will make an utter end of its place,
And darkness will pursue His enemies.

And darkness will pursue His enemies.

bHe will make an utter end of it.
Affliction will not rise up a second time.

bAnd while drunken like drunkards,
cThey shall be devoured like stubble fully dried.
