1. Gather together, gather yourselves together,you shameful nation,
2. before the decree takes effectand that day passes like windblown chaff,before the Lord’s fierce angercomes upon you,before the day of the Lord’s wrathcomes upon you.
3. Seek the Lord, all you humble of the land,you who do what he commands.Seek righteousness, seek humility;perhaps you will be shelteredon the day of the Lord’s anger.
