"I am the Lord, and there is no other. I form light and create darkness, I make weal and create woe, I am the Lord, who do all these things" (Is. 45:6).

"Raise a standard toward Zion, flee for safety, stay not, for I bring evil from the north, and great destruction" (Jerem. 4:6).

"Therefore thus says the Lord: Behold, against this family I am devising evil, from which you cannot remove your necks..." (Mic. 2:3).
