13The nations rumble on like the rumbling of many waters,
         But He will rebuke them and they will flee far away,
         And be chased like chaff in the mountains before the wind,
         Or like whirling dust before a gale.

14At evening time, behold, there is terror!
         Before morning they are no more.
         Such will be the portion of those who plunder us
         And the lot of those who pillage us.
