Threatenings against the Temple, 2 And against Israel. 11 The restoring of the Church.

I saw the Lord standing upon the [a]Altar, and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in pieces, even the [b]heads of them all, and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them, shall not flee away: and he that escapeth of them, shall not be delivered.

Though they dig into the hell, thence shall mine hand take them: though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down.
