and swore by Him who lives forever and ever, who created the heaven and the things in it, the earth and the things in it, and the sea and the things in it, that there should be no more delay;

because they chose death rather than life, even to all the remnant that are left of that family, in every place where I shall drive them out.

And the altars of On, the sins of Israel shall be taken away. Thorns and thistles shall come up on their altars; and they shall say to the mountains, Cover us; and to the hills, Fall on us.

Then they will begin 'to say to the mountains, "Fall on us!" and to the hills, "Cover us!"'

Immediately I was in [the] Spirit; and behold, a throne was set in heaven (and One sitting on the throne)

And from the throne proceeded lightnings and voices and thunders. And seven torches of fire [were] burning before His throne, which are seven spirits of God;

Whenever the living beings give glory and honor and thanksgiving to Him that sits on the throne, to Him that lives forever and ever,

Then I saw a great white throne and He who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled. And no place was found for them.

And they cried [with] a loud voice, saying, "How long, O Lord, holy and true, do You not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?"

And out of His mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword, so that with it He might strike the nations. And He will shepherd them with an iron rod. And He treads the winepress of the wine of the wrath of Almighty God.

You shall rule them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces as a potter's vessel.

Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice in Him with trembling.

There were they alarmed with fear, where there was no fear; for God is in the righteous generation.

Let Your hand be found by all Your enemies; let Your right hand find all that hate You.

You shall destroy their fruit from the earth, and their seed from [among] the sons of men.

For You shall make them [turn their] back in Your latter end; You will prepare their face.

The Lord at Your right hand has dashed in pieces kings in the day of His wrath.

He shall judge among the nations, He shall fill up [the number of] corpses, He shall crush the heads of many on the earth.

And the angel that spoke with me said to me, Cry out and say, Thus says the Lord Almighty; I have been jealous for Jerusalem and Zion with great jealousy.

And I am very angry with the heathen that combine to attack [her]: for as I indeed was a little angry, but they combined to attack [her] for evil.

Jesus said to him, "You said [it]. Nevertheless, I say to you, from now [on], you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."

and to give you who are being afflicted rest along with us at the revelation of the Lord Jesus from heaven with His mighty angels,

These shall pay a penalty--eternal destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His might,
