WELL SONG IN THAT DAY

Give thanks unto the LORD,

Call upon his name,

Declare his doings among the peoples,

Make mention that his name is exalted.

Sing unto the LORD, for he hath done excellent things: Let this be known in all the earth.

Cry aloud, and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion:

For great is the Holy one of Israel in the midst of thee.

BOOK IV

DOOMS OF THE NATIONS

i

Doom of Babylon

Set ye up an ensign upon the bare mountain, lift up the voice unto them, wave the hand, that they may go into the gates of the nobles. I have commanded my consecrated ones, yea, I have called my mighty men for mine anger, even them that exult in my majesty.

The noise of a multitude in the mountains,

Like as of a great people!

The noise of a tumult

Of the kingdoms of the nations gathered together!

The LORD of HOSTS

Mustereth the HOST for the battle;

They come from a far country,

From the uttermost part of heaven:

Even the LORD, and the weapons of his indignation,
To destroy the whole land.

Howl ye, for the Day of the LORD is at hand:

As destruction from the Almighty shall it come.
