The sound of the trumpet,
The alarm of war.

And great destruction.

The city and those who live in it.

Like a [great] vulture the enemy comes against the house of the Lord,
Because they have broken My covenant
And transgressed and rebelled against My law.

If a disaster or misfortune occurs in a city has not the Lord caused it?

That fierce and impetuous nation
Who march throughout the earth
To take possession of dwelling places that do not belong to them.

He stood and measured the earth;
He looked and startled the nations,
Yes, the eternal mountains were shattered,
The ancient hills bowed low and collapsed.
His ways are eternal.
