The nations run away when they hear a loud noise; the nations scatter when you spring into action!

喧嚷的响声一发，众民奔逃；你一兴起，列国四散。

轰然之声一发出，万民就奔逃；你一兴起，列国就四散。

轰然之声一发出，万民就奔逃；你一兴起，列国就四散。

你大喊一声，列邦都奔逃；你一站起来，列国都溃散。

喧嚷的声音一发，众民必逃跑；你一兴起，列国就四散。

轰然之声一发，万民就奔逃；你一兴起，列国就四散。

喧嚷的響聲一發，眾民奔逃；你一興起，列國四散。

轟然之聲一發出，萬民就奔逃；你一興起，列國就四散。

轟然之聲一發出，萬民就奔逃；你一興起，列國就四散。

你大喊一聲，列邦都奔逃；你一站起來，列國都潰散。

喧嚷的聲音一發，眾民必逃跑；你一興起，列國就四散。

喧嚷的響聲一發，萬族之民都逃跑；你一奮起，列國都四散。

轟然之聲一發，萬民就奔逃；你一興起，列國就四散。

聞厥喧譁、眾民逃遁、爾既興起、列邦渙散、

爾既勃興、群醜逃遁、威聲遠振、敵軍四散、

主發雷霆、原文作緣喧闐之聲列民逃遁、主勃然而興、群族奔散、

At the uproar of your army, the peoples flee; when you rise up, the nations scatter.

At the roar of your army, the nations run away. When you rise up against them, they scatter.

At the tumultuous noise peoples flee; when you lift yourself up, nations are scattered,

The enemy runs at the sound of your voice. When you stand up, the nations flee!

The peoples flee at the thunderous noise; the nations scatter when you rise in your majesty.

At the sound of a roar, peoples flee; At the lifting up of Yourself, nations disperse.

At the noise of the tumult the people shall flee; When You lift Yourself up, the nations shall be scattered;

At the noise of the tumult the peoples are fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations are scattered.

The peoples flee at the thunderous noise; the nations scatter when You rise in Your majesty.

At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.

At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled. When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.

For he says:“ By my strong hand I have accomplished this, by my strategy that I devised. I invaded the territory of nations, and looted their storehouses. Like a mighty conqueror, I brought down rulers.My hand discovered the wealth of the nations, as if it were in a nest, as one gathers up abandoned eggs, I gathered up the whole earth. There was no wing flapping, or open mouth chirping.”

Certainly you have heard how the kings of Assyria have annihilated all lands. Do you really think you will be rescued?Were the nations whom my predecessors destroyed– the nations of Gozan, Haran, Rezeph, and the people of Eden in Telassar– rescued by their gods?Where are the king of Hamath, the king of Arpad, and the kings of Lair, Sepharvaim, Hena, and Ivvah?’”Hezekiah took the letter from the messengers and read it. Then Hezekiah went up to the LORD’s temple and spread it out before the LORD.Hezekiah prayed before the LORD:“ O LORD who commands armies, O God of Israel, who is enthroned on the cherubim! You alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You made the sky and the earth.Pay attention, LORD, and hear! Open your eyes, LORD, and observe! Listen to this entire message Sennacherib sent and how he taunts the living God!It is true, LORD, that the kings of Assyria have destroyed all the nations and their lands.

He sees there is no advocate; he is shocked that no one intervenes. So he takes matters into his own hands; his desire for justice drives him on.He wears his desire for justice like body armor, and his desire to deliver is like a helmet on his head. He puts on the garments of vengeance and wears zeal like a robe.He repays them for what they have done, dispensing angry judgment to his adversaries and punishing his enemies. He repays the coastlands.

Because you rage against me and the uproar you create has reached my ears, I will put my hook in your nose, and my bridle between your lips, and I will lead you back the way you came.”“ This will be your reminder that I have spoken the truth: This year you will eat what grows wild, and next year what grows on its own. But the year after that you will plant seed and harvest crops; you will plant vines and consume their produce.Those who remain in Judah will take root in the ground and bear fruit.“ For a remnant will leave Jerusalem; survivors will come out of Mount Zion. The intense devotion of the LORD who commands armies will accomplish this.So this is what the LORD says about the king of Assyria:‘ He will not enter this city, nor will he shoot an arrow here. He will not attack it with his shielded warriors, nor will he build siege works against it.He will go back the way he came– he will not enter this city,’ says the LORD.I will shield this city and rescue it for the sake of my reputation and because of my promise to David my servant.”’”The LORD’s messenger went out and killed 185,000 troops in the Assyrian camp. When they got up early the next morning, there were all the corpses!

This very day, standing in Nob, they shake their fist at Daughter Zion’s mountain– at the hill of Jerusalem.Look, the sovereign master, the LORD who commands armies, is ready to cut off the branches with terrifying power. The tallest trees will be cut down, the loftiest ones will be brought low.The thickets of the forest will be chopped down with an ax, and mighty Lebanon will fall.

The many nations massing together are as good as dead, those who make a commotion as loud as the roaring of the sea’s waves. The people making such an uproar are as good as dead, those who make an uproar as loud as the roaring of powerful waves.Though these people make an uproar as loud as the roaring of powerful waves, when he shouts at them, they will flee to a distant land, driven before the wind like dead weeds on the hills, or like dead thistles before a strong gale.In the evening there is sudden terror; by morning they vanish. This is the fate of those who try to plunder us, the destiny of those who try to loot us!

Nations are in uproar, kingdoms are overthrown. God gives a shout, the earth dissolves.
