6 There shall be stability in your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge: the fear of Yahweh is your treasure.
7 Behold, their valiant ones cry outside; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceases: [the enemy] has broken the covenant, he has despised the cities, he doesn`t regard man.
9 The land mourns and languishes; Lebanon is confounded and withers away; Sharon is like a desert; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their leaves].
10 Now will I arise, says Yahweh; now will I lift up myself; now will I be exalted.
11 You shall conceive chaff, you shall bring forth stubble: your breath is a fire that shall devour you.
12 The peoples shall be as the burning of lime, as thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.
