Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;

Send thine hand from above; rid me, and deliver me out of great waters, from the hand of strange children;

They shall abundantly utter the memory of thy great goodness, and shall sing of thy righteousness.

Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

And many nations shall be joined to the LORD in that day, and shall be my people: and I will dwell in the midst of thee, and thou shalt know that the LORD of hosts hath sent me unto thee.

Thus saith the LORD of hosts; It shall yet come to pass, that there shall come people, and the inhabitants of many cities:

Yea, many people and strong nations shall come to seek the LORD of hosts in Jerusalem, and to pray before the LORD.

And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great tumult from the LORD shall be among them; and they shall lay hold every one on the hand of his neighbour, and his hand shall rise up against the hand of his neighbour.
