They attacked Midian, as the LORD had commanded Moses, and killed all the men,

The people of Israel captured the Midianite women and children, took their cattle and their flocks, plundered all their wealth,

(SEE 11:15)

"On Zion, my sacred hill," he says, "I have installed my king."

Ask, and I will give you all the nations; the whole earth will be yours.

Now listen to this warning, you kings; learn this lesson, you rulers of the world:

and bow down to him; or else his anger will be quickly aroused, and you will suddenly die. Happy are all who go to him for protection.

The king will capture all his enemies; he will capture everyone who hates him.

He will destroy them like a blazing fire when he appears. The LORD will devour them in his anger, and fire will consume them.

The LORD said to my lord, "Sit here at my right side until I put your enemies under your feet."

Now, as for those enemies of mine who did not want me to be their king, bring them here and kill them in my presence!' "

and he will give relief to you who suffer and to us as well. He will do this when the Lord Jesus appears from heaven with his mighty angels,

They will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, separated from the presence of the Lord and from his glorious might,
