For this is what the LORD has told me: "I will quietly look ^(F1)from My ^(C1)dwelling place Like dazzling heat in the ^(F2)(C2)sunshine, Like a cloud of ^(C3)dew in the heat of harvest."

For ^(C1)before the harvest, as soon as the bud ^(F1)blossoms And the flower becomes a ripening grape, He will cut off the shoots with pruning knives, And remove and tear away the spreading branches.

They will be left together for mountain birds ^(C1)of prey, And for the animals of the earth; And the birds of prey will spend the summer feeding on them, And all the animals of the earth will spend harvest time on them.
