And the foundations of the thresholds trembled at the voice of him who called out, while the temple was filling with smoke.

For in a very little while My indignation against you will be spent and My anger will be directed to their destruction.”

Indeed, while following the way of Your judgments, O Lord,
We have waited for You eagerly;
Your name, even Your memory, is the desire of our souls.

Come, my people, enter into your rooms
And close your doors behind you;
Hide for a little while
Until indignation runs its course.

And these also reel with wine and stagger from strong drink:
The priest and the prophet reel with strong drink,
They are confused by wine, they stagger from strong drink;
They reel while having visions,
They totter when rendering judgment.

Is it not yet just a little while
Before Lebanon will be turned into a fertile field,
And the fertile field will be considered as a forest?

Woe to you, O destroyer,
While you were not destroyed;
And he who is treacherous, while others did not deal treacherously with him.
As soon as you finish destroying, you will be destroyed;
As soon as you cease to deal treacherously, others will deal treacherously with you.

Seek the Lord while He may be found;
Call upon Him while He is near.

The righteous man perishes, and no man takes it to heart;
And devout men are taken away, while no one understands.
For the righteous man is taken away from evil,

Your holy people possessed Your sanctuary for a little while,
Our adversaries have trodden it down.

It will also come to pass that before they call, I will answer; and while they are still speaking, I will hear.
