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.
12 And the people will be like the ashes from a fire. They will be consumed by fire like a bundle of thorns.
