And now behold, we are prepared to receive you; yea, and except you withdraw your purposes, behold, ye will pull down the wrath of that God whom you have rejected, upon you, even to your utter destruction;.

Simple English

We are ready for you. And unless you change your plans, you will bring down the anger of the God you have rejected. He will destroy you completely.

Paraphrase

So here’s where we stand: we’re ready for you. Unless you back down, you’re going to pull down the wrath of the God you’ve rejected—and it will utterly destroy you.
