Exegesis
The phrase YHWH tzevaot mefakked {יְהוָ֣ה צְבָא֔וֹת מְפַקֵּ֖ד | Yəhōwāh ṣəḇāʾôt məp̄aqēd} shifts focus to divine agency, culminating in tzeva milchamah {צְבָ֥א מִלְחָמָֽה | ṣəḇāʾ milḥāmah}, emphasizing mobilization for battle. English clause order mirrors the Hebrew to maintain rhetorical build-up.
In context — Isaiah 13:4
The sound of an uproar rises in the mountains, like the likeness of a great people; the voice of kingdoms in tumult, nations being gathered; the LORD of hosts is mustering the army for battle .
