5 The Lord has been magnified, because he has lived on high. He has filled Zion with judgment and justice.
6 And there will be faith in your times: the riches of salvation, wisdom and knowledge. For the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
7 Behold, outside, those who see will cry out. The Angels of peace will weep bitterly.
8 The roads have become desolate. Travelers have ceased along the paths. The covenant has been nullified. He has tossed aside cities. He has disregarded men.
9 The earth has mourned and languished. Lebanon has been confounded and desecrated. And Sharon has become like a desert. And Bashan and Carmel have been struck together.
10 "Now, I will rise up!" says the Lord. "Now I will be exalted! Now I will lift myself up!"
11 You will conceive heat. You will give birth to stubble. Your own spirit will devour you like fire.
