Por mucho que hagan Siria e Israel, enemigos nuestros, no triunfarán; serán despedazados. Escúchenme ustedes, todos nuestros enemigos: Alístense para hacernos la guerra, y perecerán. ¡Sí, perecerán! Reúnan sus consejos de guerra, desarrollen su estrategia, preparen planes de ataque contra nosotros, ¡y perezcan! porque Dios está con nosotros.
