“Lift(A) up a banner (B)on the high mountain,
Raise your voice to them;
(C)Wave your hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.
I have commanded My [a]sanctified ones;
I have also called (D)My mighty ones for My anger—
Those who (E)rejoice in My exaltation.”

The (F)noise of a multitude in the mountains,
Like that of many people!
A tumultuous noise of the kingdoms of nations gathered together!
The Lord of hosts musters
The army for battle.
They come from a far country,
From the end of heaven—
The (G)Lord and His [b]weapons of indignation,
To destroy the whole (H)land.

Raise a banner(A) on a bare hilltop,
    shout to them;
beckon to them
    to enter the gates(B) of the nobles.
I have commanded those I prepared for battle;
    I have summoned my warriors(C) to carry out my wrath(D)
    those who rejoice(E) in my triumph.

Listen, a noise on the mountains,
    like that of a great multitude!(F)
Listen, an uproar(G) among the kingdoms,
    like nations massing together!
The Lord Almighty(H) is mustering(I)
    an army for war.
They come from faraway lands,
    from the ends of the heavens(J)
the Lord and the weapons(K) of his wrath(L)
    to destroy(M) the whole country.
