1In that day the Lord, with his great and strong and cruel sword, will send punishment on Leviathan, the quick-moving snake, and on Leviathan, the twisted snake; and he will put to death the dragon which is in the sea.
2In that day it will be said, A vine-garden of delight, make a song about it.
3I, the Lord, am watching it; I will give it water at all times: I will keep it night and day, for fear that any damage comes to it.
4My passion is over: if the thorns were fighting against me, I would make an attack on them, and they would be burned up together.
5Or let him put himself under my power, and make peace with me.
6In days to come Jacob will take root: Israel will put out buds and flowers; and the face of the world will be full of fruit.
7Is his punishment like the punishment of those who overcame him? or are his dead as great in number as those he put to the sword?
