    and will bring their fears on them;
because when I called, no one answered;
    when I spoke, they didn’t listen;

A voice of tumult from the city,
    a voice from the temple,
    a voice of Yahweh that repays his enemies what they deserve.

    hear that noise from the temple!
It is the sound(H) of the Lord
    repaying(I) his enemies all they deserve.
