17 He put on (A)righteousness like a breastplate,
And a (B)helmet of salvation on His head;
And He put on (C)garments of vengeance for clothing
And wrapped Himself with (D)zeal as a mantle.
18 (E)According to their [a]deeds, [b]so He will repay,
Wrath to His adversaries, recompense to His enemies;
To the coastlands He will [c]make recompense.
19 So they will fear the name of the Lord from the (F)west
And His glory from the (G)rising of the sun,
For He will (H)come like a [d]rushing stream
Which the wind of the Lord drives.
