² When the days of your siege come to an end, burn^(A) a third^(B) of the hair inside the city. Take a third and strike it with the sword all around the city. And scatter a third to the wind.^(C) For I will pursue them with drawn sword.^{(D) 3} But take a few hairs and tuck them away in the folds of your garment.^(E)
