11 “I overthrew your cities,[a]
    as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.
You’ve become like a burning ember, snatched from the fire,
    but you have not returned to me,”
        declares the Lord.

12 “Therefore this is what I will do to you, Israel.
    Because I am about to do this,
        prepare to be summoned to your God, Israel!”

13 Look! The one who crafts mountains,
    who creates the wind,
who reveals what he is thinking to mankind,
    who darkens the morning light,
who tramples down the high places of the land—
    the Lord, the God of the Heavenly Armies is his name.
