12 “Let the nations be roused and come up to the Valley* of Je·hoshʹa·phat;

For there I will sit in order to judge all the surrounding nations.+

 8 ‘So keep yourselves in expectation of* me,’+ declares Jehovah,

‘Until the day when I rise up to take plunder,*

For my judicial decision is to gather nations, to assemble kingdoms,

To pour out on them my indignation, all my burning anger;+

For by the fire of my zeal the whole earth will be consumed.+
