2. All who dwell on land, on the sea, and in islands, shall bring to it
gifts, presents, and offerings; yet that deep valley shall not be full.
Their hands shall commit iniquity. Whatsoever they produce by labour,
the sinners shall devour with crime. But they shall perish from the face
of the Lord of spirits, and from the face of his earth. They shall stand
up, and shall not fail for ever and ever.
3. I beheld the angels of punishment, who were dwelling _there_, and
preparing every instrument of Satan.
4. Then I inquired of the angel of peace, who proceeded with me, for
whom those instruments were preparing.
5. He said, These they are preparing for the kings and powerful ones of
the earth, that thus[110] they may perish.
6. After which the righteous and chosen house of his congregation shall
appear, thenceforward unchangeable, in the name of the Lord of spirits.
7. Nor shall those mountains exist in his presence, as the earth and the
hills, as the fountains of water _exist_. And the righteous shall be
relieved from the vexation of sinners.
