Strike the capitals of the pillars^(B)
so that the thresholds shake;
knock them down on the heads of all the people.

none of the fugitives will escape.
² If they dig down to Sheol,^(E)
from there My hand will take them;
if they climb up to heaven,^(F)
from there I will bring them down.
³ If they hide themselves
on the top of Carmel,
from there I will track them down^(G)
and seize them;
if they conceal themselves
from My sight on the sea floor,^(H)
from there I will command
the sea serpent to bite them.^(I)
4 And if they are driven
by their enemies into captivity,^(J)
from there I will command
the sword to kill them.^(K)
I will fix My eyes on them
for harm and not for good.^(L)
