Distress and help

33 Woe to you, destroyer,
    you who have not been destroyed!
Woe to you, betrayer,

    you will be destroyed;
when you stop betraying,
    you will be betrayed.

    our salvation in time of distress.
At the uproar of your army, the peoples flee;
    when you rise up, the nations scatter.
