66:14 When you see this, you will be happy, 1
and you will be revived. 2
The Lord will reveal his power to his servants
and his anger to his enemies. 3
66:15 For look, the Lord comes with fire,
his chariots come like a windstorm, 4
to reveal his raging anger,
his battle cry, and his flaming arrows. 5
66:16 For the Lord judges all humanity 6
with fire and his sword;
the Lord will kill many. 7
