God is coming again from Edom;
    the holy God is coming from the hills of Paran.
His splendor covers the heavens,
    and the earth is full of his praise.
He comes with the brightness of lightning;
    light flashes from his hand,
    there where his power is hidden.
He sends disease before him
    and commands death to follow him.
