2:12 Indeed, the Lord who commands armies has planned a day of judgment, 1
for 2 all the high and mighty,
for all who are proud – they will be humiliated;
12:4 At that time 3 you will say:
“Praise the Lord!
Ask him for help! 4
Publicize his mighty acts among the nations!
Make it known that he is unique! 5
30:30 The Lord will give a mighty shout 6
and intervene in power, 7
with furious anger and flaming, destructive fire, 8
with a driving rainstorm and hailstones.
