Uttermost part

You have added to the nation, Lord.
You have added to the nation; You are honored.
You have expanded all the borders of the land.

Turn to Me and be saved,
all the ends of the earth.
For I am God,
and there is no other.

The Lord has displayed His holy arm
in the sight of all the nations;
all the ends of the earth will see
the salvation of our God.

I will establish a sign among them, and I will send survivors from them to the nations—to Tarshish, Put, Lud (who are archers), Tubal, Javan, and the islands far away—who have not heard of My fame or seen My glory. And they will proclaim My glory among the nations.

Ask of Me,
and I will make the nations Your inheritance
and the ends of the earth Your possession.

All the ends of the earth will remember
and turn to the Lord.
All the families of the nations
will bow down before You,

God will bless us,
and all the ends of the earth will fear Him.

May he rule from sea to sea
and from the Euphrates
to the ends of the earth.

He has remembered His love
and faithfulness to the house of Israel;
all the ends of the earth
have seen our God’s victory.

He will stand and shepherd them
in the strength of Yahweh,
in the majestic name of Yahweh His God.
They will live securely,
for then His greatness will extend
to the ends of the earth.

He will send out the angels and gather His elect from the four winds, from the end of the earth to the end of the sky.

For this is what the Lord has commanded us:

I have made you
a light for the Gentiles
to bring salvation
to the ends

of the earth.”

Glory

Lord, who is like You among the gods?
Who is like You, glorious in holiness,
revered with praises, performing wonders?

The righteous one will rejoice
when he sees the retribution;
he will wash his feet in the blood of the wicked.

They sang the song of God’s servant Moses and the song of the Lamb:

Great and awe-inspiring are Your works,
Lord God, the Almighty;
righteous and true are Your ways,
King of the Nations.

I heard the angel of the waters say:

You are righteous,
who is and who was, the Holy One,
for You have decided these things.

After this I heard something like the loud voice of a vast multitude in heaven, saying:

Hallelujah!
Salvation, glory, and power belong to our God,

But

Therefore the Lord God of Hosts
will inflict an emaciating disease
on the well-fed of Assyria,
and He will kindle a burning fire
under its glory.

On that day
the splendor of Jacob will fade,
and his healthy body will become emaciated.

He gave them what they asked for,
but sent a wasting disease among them.

The treacherous

A troubling vision is declared to me:
“The treacherous one acts treacherously,
and the destroyer destroys.
Advance, Elam! Lay siege, you Medes!
I will put an end to all her groaning.”

Woe, you destroyer never destroyed,
you traitor never betrayed!
When you have finished destroying,
you will be destroyed.
When you have finished betraying,
they will betray you.

You have never heard; you have never known;
For a long time your ears have not been open.
For I knew that you were very treacherous,
and were known as a rebel from birth.

However, as a woman may betray her lover,
so you have betrayed Me, house of Israel.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

They, the house of Israel and the house of Judah,
have dealt very treacherously with Me.
This is the Lord’s declaration.

You will be righteous, Lord,
even if I bring a case against You.
Yet, I wish to contend with You:
Why does the way of the wicked prosper?
Why do all the treacherous live at ease?

ב BetShe weeps aloud during the night,
with tears on her cheeks.
There is no one to offer her comfort,
not one from all her lovers.

All her friends have betrayed her;
they have become her enemies.

They betrayed the Lord;
indeed, they gave birth to illegitimate children.
Now the New Moon will devour them
along with their fields.

But they, like Adam, have violated the covenant;
there they have betrayed Me.

Why do You force me to look at injustice?
Why do You tolerate wrongdoing?
Oppression and violence are right in front of me.
Strife is ongoing, and conflict escalates.

General references

From the rising of the sun to its setting,
let the name of Yahweh be praised.

Let them give glory to the Lord
and declare His praise in the islands.

And Mary said:

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,

Again it says: Rejoice, you Gentiles, with His people!
