Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong;
    like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest,
like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters,
    he will cast down to the earth with violence.
The proud crown of the drunkards of E′phraim
    will be trodden under foot;
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
    which is on the head of the rich valley,
will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer:
    when a man sees it, he eats it up
    as soon as it is in his hand.
