1:2 How long, Lord, must I cry for help?
But you do not listen!
I call out to you, “Violence!”
But you do not intervene!
2:2 The Lord responded:
“Write down this message! Record it legibly on tablets,
so the one who announces it may read it easily.
2:13 Be sure of this! The Lord who commands armies has decreed:
The nations’ efforts will go up in smoke;
their exhausting work will be for nothing.
2:14 For recognition of the Lord’s sovereign majesty will fill the earth
just as the waters fill up the sea.
