15 Therefore, in the east honor the Lord!
In the coasts and islands of the west
honor the name of the Lord,
the God of Israel.
16 From the ends of the earth we hear songs:
The Splendor of the Righteous One.(A)
But I said, “I waste away! I waste away![a]
Woe is me.”
The treacherous act treacherously;
the treacherous deal very treacherously.(B)

17 Panic, pit, and trap await you(C)
who dwell on the earth.(D)
