25 For this reason the (A)anger of the Lord has burned against His people,
And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them.
And the (B)mountains quaked, and their (C)corpses [a]lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.
(D)Despite all this, His anger [b]is not spent,
But His (E)hand is still stretched out.

26 He will also lift up a (F)flag to the distant [c]nation,
And (G)whistle for it (H)from the ends of the earth;
And behold, it will (I)come with speed swiftly.
27 (J)No one in it is tired or stumbles,
No one slumbers or sleeps;
Nor is the (K)undergarment at his waist loosened,
Nor his sandal strap broken.
