15 Therefore, in the east honor the Lord!
In the islands of the west
honor the name of Yahweh,
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)
