¹⁰ ‘Now I will arise,’ says the Lord,
   ‘now I will lift myself up;
   now I will be exalted.
¹¹ You conceive chaff, you bring forth stubble;
   your breath is a fire that will consume you.
¹² And the peoples will be as if burned to lime,
   like thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.’

¹³ Hear, you who are far away, what I have done;
   and you who are near, acknowledge my might.
¹⁴ The sinners in Zion are afraid;
   trembling has seized the godless:
‘Who among us can live with the devouring fire?
   Who among us can live with everlasting flames?’
¹⁵ Those who walk righteously and speak uprightly,
   who despise the gain of oppression,
who wave away a bribe instead of accepting it,
   who stop their ears from hearing of bloodshed
   and shut their eyes from looking on evil,
¹⁶ they will live on the heights;
   their refuge will be the fortresses of rocks;
   their food will be supplied, their water assured.
