⁶ Who can stand before his indignation?
    Who can endure the heat of his anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire,
    and the rocks are broken into pieces by him.
⁷ The Lord is good,
    a stronghold in the day of trouble;
he knows those who take refuge in him.
⁸     But with an overflowing flood
he will make a complete end of the adversaries,^[a]
    and will pursue his enemies into darkness.
⁹ What do you plot against the Lord?
    He will make a complete end;
    trouble will not rise up a second time.
¹⁰ For they are like entangled thorns,
    like drunkards as they drink;
    they are consumed like stubble fully dried.
¹¹ From you came one
    who plotted evil against the Lord,
    a worthless counselor.

¹² Thus says the Lord,
“Though they are at full strength and many,
    they will be cut down and pass away.
Though I have afflicted you,
    I will afflict you no more.
¹³ And now I will break his yoke from off you
    and will burst your bonds apart.”

¹⁴ The Lord has given commandment about you:
    “No more shall your name be perpetuated;
from the house of your gods I will cut off
    the carved image and the metal image.
I will make your grave, for you are vile.”

^15 [b] Behold, upon the mountains, the feet of him
    who brings good news,
    who publishes peace!
Keep your feasts, O Judah;
    fulfill your vows,
for never again shall the worthless pass through you;
    he is utterly cut off.
