Isaiah 29:4-6

Revised Standard Version

⁴Then deep from the earth you shall speak,
from low in the dust your words shall come;
your voice shall come from the ground like the voice of a ghost,
and your speech shall whisper out of the dust.

⁵But the multitude of your foes^[a] shall be like small dust,
    and the multitude of the ruthless like passing chaff.
And in an instant, suddenly,
⁶    you will be visited by the Lord of hosts
with thunder and with earthquake and great noise,
    with whirlwind and tempest, and the flame of a devouring fire.
