    and bring (B)their fears upon them,

(D)but they did what was evil in my eyes
    and chose that in which I did not delight.”

Hear the word of the Lord,
    you who tremble at his word:
“Your brothers who hate you
    and cast you out for my name's sake
have said, (E)‘Let the Lord be glorified,
    that we may see your joy’;

    A sound from the temple!
The sound of the Lord,
    (F)rendering recompense to his enemies!
