Ottley(i)
17 And I will set judgment for a hope, and my mercy shall be for balances; and ye who vainly trust in a lie—for the tempest shall not pass you by,
18 Lest also it take away your covenant of death, and your hope regarding hell shall not abide: if a rushing tempest come upon you, ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 When it passeth by, it shall take hold upon you; very early shall it pass by by day, and by night it shall be an evil hope. Learn to hearken,
20 Being straitened; we cannot fight, and of ourselves we are weak, to be assembled together.
21 As (at) the mount of ungodly men shall he stand up, and it shall be, in the valley of Gibeon, with wrath shall he do his works, a work of bitterness; but his wrath shall deal strangely, and its bitterness shall be strange.
22 And ye, may ye not rejoice, and let not your bonds be strong; for I have heard from the Lord of Hosts of doings, fulfilled and cut short, which he will perform upon all the land.
