TSK · Isaiah 31:2

And when the ark traveled, Moses would say,“Rise up, O LORD! May your enemies be scattered, and may those who hate you flee before you!”

The LORD is the one who by his power made the earth. He is the one who by his wisdom established the world. And by his understanding he spread out the skies.

Moreover the LORD says,‘I will make something happen to prove that I will punish you in this place. I will do it so that you will know that my threats to bring disaster on you will prove true.

If an alarm sounds in a city, do people not fear? If disaster overtakes a city, is the LORD not responsible?

But have my words and statutes, which I commanded my servants the prophets, not outlived your fathers? Then they paid attention and confessed,‘The LORD of Heaven’s Armies has indeed done what he said he would do to us, because of our sinful ways.’”
