5  The mountains ^fmelt like ^gwax before the Lord,

before ^hthe Lord of all the earth.

5  The mountains ^zquaked before the Lord,

^aeven Sinai before the Lord,¹ the God of Israel.

5  The Lord God of hosts,

he who touches the earth and ⁿit melts,

and all who dwell in it mourn,

^oand all of it rises like the Nile,

^oand sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt;

13  “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord,

^e“when the plowman shall overtake the reaper

and the treader of grapes him who sows the seed;

^fthe mountains shall drip sweet wine,

and all the hills shall flow with it.

5  ^mThe mountains quake before him;

ⁿthe hills melt;

the earth heaves before him,

^othe world and all who dwell in it.
