On that day ^(C1)the LORD will punish ^(F1)(C2)Leviathan the fleeing serpent, With His fierce and great and mighty sword, Even ^(F1)Leviathan the twisted serpent; And ^(C3)He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.

On that day, "A ^(F1)(C1)vineyard of beauty, sing of it!

-"I, the LORD, am its keeper; ^(C1)I water it every moment. So that no one will ^(F1)damage it, I ^(C2)guard it night and day.

-"I have no wrath. Should ^(F1)someone give Me ^(C1)briars and thorns in battle, Then I would step on them, ^(C2)I would burn them ^(F2)completely.

-"Or let him ^(F1)(C1)rely on My protection, Let him make peace with Me, Let him ^(C2)make peace with Me."

^(F1)In the days to come Jacob ^(C1)will take root, Israel will ^(C2)blossom and sprout, And they will fill the ^(F2)whole world with ^(C3)fruit.

Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has ^(C1)He struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain, ^(F1)have they been slain?

You contended with them ^(F1)by banishing them, by ^(C1)driving them away. With His fierce wind He has expelled them on the day of the ^(C2)east wind.

Therefore through this Jacob's wrongdoing will be ^(C1)forgiven; And this will be ^(F1)the full price of the ^(F2)(C2)pardoning of his sin: When he makes all the ^(C3)altar stones like pulverized chalk stones; When ^(F3)Asherim and incense altars will not stand.

For the fortified city is ^(C1)isolated, A ^(F1)homestead deserted and abandoned like the desert; ^(C2)There the calf will graze, And there it will lie down and ^(F2)feed on its branches.

When its ^(C1)limbs are dry, they are broken off; Women come and make a fire with them, For they are not a people of ^(C2)discernment, Therefore ^(C3)their Maker ^(C4)will not have compassion on them. And their Creator will not be gracious to them.

On that day the LORD ^(C1)will thresh from the flowing stream of the ^(C2)Euphrates River to the brook of Egypt, and you will be ^(C3)gathered up one by one, you sons of Israel.

It will come about also on that day that a great ^(C1)trumpet will be blown, and those who were perishing in the land of ^(C2)Assyria and who were scattered in the land of Egypt will come and ^(C3)worship the LORD on the holy mountain in Jerusalem.
