2On a bare mountain raise a signal; lift up the voice to them; wave the hand, that they may enter the gates of the nobles.

3I myself have commanded my consecrated ones; I have also summoned my warriors for my anger, my proudly exulting ones.

4The sound of a multitude in the mountains, like a great people! The sound of an uproar of kingdoms, of nations gathered together! Yahweh of hosts is mustering an army for battle.

5They are coming from a distant land, from the end of the heavens— Yahweh and the weapons of his wrath— to destroy the whole earth.
