¹⁵ It makes my people lose courage and stumble. I am threatening their city with a sword^[a] that flashes like lightning and is ready to kill. ¹⁶ Cut to the right and the left, you sharp sword! Cut wherever you turn.^{[b] 17} I also will clap my hands, and my anger will be over. I, the Lord, have spoken.”
