Clubs are counted as stubble; he laughs at the rattle of javelins.
He laughs at fear and is not dismayed; he does not turn back from the sword.
He scorns the tumult of the city; he hears not the shouts of the driver.
At destruction and famine you shall laugh, and shall not fear the beasts of the earth.
This is the word that the Lord has spoken concerning him: “She despises you, she scorns you— the virgin daughter of Zion; she wags her head behind you— the daughter of Jerusalem.
