The treacherous deal treacherously,
And the treacherous deal very treacherously.”

The earth is shaken violently.

And it will fall, never to rise again.

That the LORD will punish the host of [fn]heaven on high,
And the kings of the earth on earth.

Like prisoners in the [fn]dungeon,
And will be confined in prison;
And after many days they will be punished.

For the LORD of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
And His glory will be before His elders.
