12The peoples shall be as the burning of lime, as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.
13Hear, you who are far off, what I have done; and, you who are near, acknowledge my might.
14The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling has seized the godless ones: Who among us can dwell with the devouring fire? who among us can dwell with everlasting burning?
15He who walks righteously, and speaks blamelessly; he who despises the gain of oppressions, who shakes his hands from taking a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of blood, and shuts his eyes from looking on evil:
16He shall dwell on high; his place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given [him]; his waters shall be sure.
17Your eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall see a land that reaches afar.
18Your heart shall muse on the terror: Where is he who counted, where is he who weighed [the tribute]? where is he who counted the towers?
