1 And in those days will the earth also give back that which has been entrusted to it, And Sheol also will give back that which it has received, And hell will give back that which it owes.

5a For in those days the chosen One will arise,

2 And he will choose the righteous and holy from among them: For the day has drawn near that they should be saved.

3 And the chosen One will in those days sit on My throne, And his mouth will pour forth all the secrets of wisdom and counsel: For the Lord of Spirits has given (them) to him and has glorified him.

4 And in those days will the mountains leap like rams, And the hills also will skip like lambs satisfied with milk, And the faces of [all] the angels in heaven will be lighted up with joy.

5b And the earth will rejoice, c. And the righteous will dwell upon it, d. And the chosen will walk on it.
