11     make them grow the day you plant them,
    and make them bloom the morning you start them.
But the harvest will disappear on a day of sickness and incurable pain.

    like the thundering seas they thunder.
    Doom to the roar of nations,
        like the roaring of mighty waters.

    and they will flee far away,
    pursued like chaff by wind in the mountains,
    like tumbleweeds before a storm.
