Back to passage

Cry out, O nations, with his people, for he will avenge his servants’ blood; he will take vengeance against his enemies, and make atonement for his land and people.

and you neglected all my advice, and did not comply with my rebuke,

Tell those who panic,“Be strong! Do not fear! Look, your God comes to avenge! With divine retribution he comes to deliver you.”

You will drink the milk of nations; you will nurse at the breasts of kings. Then you will recognize that I, the LORD, am your deliverer, your protector, the Powerful One of Jacob.

For I looked forward to the day of vengeance, and then payback time arrived.

A third of your people will die of plague or be overcome by the famine within you. A third of your people will fall by the sword surrounding you, and a third I will scatter to the winds. I will unleash a sword behind them.

I will exhaust my rage on you, and then my fury will turn from you. I will calm down and no longer be angry.

where he is now waiting until his enemies are made a footstool for his feet.
