“The Lord will take his zeal
As his whole armor.
He will arm all creation
To repel his enemies.
He will put on righteousness
As a breastplate.
He will wear impartial justice
As a helmet.
He will take holiness
As an invincible shield.
He will sharpen stern wrath
For a sword.
Creation will join with him
To fight against his frenzied foes.”
The Lord will prepare for this battle against the unjust. His zeal will be his armor. All creation will join him against his enemies. His breastplate will be righteousness. His helmet will be impartial justice. Holiness will be his shield. His sword will be his stern anger. Once again, all of creation will join with the Lord to fight his foes.
