Can God rescue us from the problems we face? Can he save us from oppressive world powers? Can he break the power of our sin and help us deal with its consequences?

1En aquel día Jehová castigará con su espada dura, grande y fuerte al leviatán serpiente veloz, y al leviatán serpiente tortuosa; y matará al dragón que está en el mar.
2En aquel día cantad acerca de la viña del vino rojo.
3Yo Jehová la guardo, cada momento la regaré; la guardaré de noche y de día, para que nadie la dañe.
4No hay enojo en mí. ¿Quién pondrá contra mí en batalla espinos y cardos? Yo los hollaré, los quemaré a una.
6Días vendrán cuando Jacob echará raíces, florecerá y echará renuevos Israel, y la faz del mundo llenará de fruto.
7¿Acaso ha sido herido como quien lo hirió, o ha sido muerto como los que lo mataron?
8Con medida lo castigarás en sus vástagos. Él los remueve con su recio viento en el día del aire solano.
9De esta manera, pues, será perdonada la iniquidad de Jacob, y este será todo el fruto, la remoción de su pecado; cuando haga todas las piedras del altar como piedras de cal desmenuzadas, y no se levanten los símbolos de Asera ni las imágenes del sol.
10Porque la ciudad fortificada será desolada, la ciudad habitada será abandonada y dejada como un desierto; allí pastará el becerro, allí tendrá su majada, y acabará sus ramas.
11Cuando sus ramas se sequen, serán quebradas; mujeres vendrán a encenderlas; porque aquel no es pueblo de entendimiento; por tanto, su Hacedor no tendrá de él misericordia, ni se compadecerá de él el que lo formó.
12Acontecerá en aquel día, que trillará Jehová desde el río Éufrates hasta el torrente de Egipto, y vosotros, hijos de Israel, seréis reunidos uno a uno.
13Acontecerá también en aquel día, que se tocará con gran trompeta, y vendrán los que habían sido esparcidos en la tierra de Asiria, y los que habían sido desterrados a Egipto, y adorarán a Jehová en el monte santo, en Jerusalén.
