18. Formal Translation Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to rescue them on the day of the LORD’s {Yahweh, Righteous Avenger} wrath; by the flame of His jealousy the whole earth will be consumed, for He will effect a total—indeed, a sudden—end to all who dwell on the earth. |
18. Dynamic Translation Neither their silver nor their gold can save them when the LORD {Yahweh, Justice Bringer} unleashes His wrath; the fire of His jealousy will burn up the whole earth, for He is going to bring about a swift and total end to everyone who lives on the earth. |
