²⁴ And all the trees of the field shall know that I am the Lord; ^(A)I bring low the high tree, and make high the low tree, dry up ^(B)the green tree, and make ^(C)the dry tree flourish. ^(D)I am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will do it.”

⁴⁷ Say to the forest of the Negeb, Hear the word of the Lord: Thus says the Lord God, Behold, ^(A)I will kindle a fire in you, and it shall devour every ^(B)green tree in you and every ^(C)dry tree. The blazing flame shall not be quenched, and ^(D)all faces from south to north shall be scorched by it.
