³¹ And the strong man will become tinder,
His work also a spark.
Thus they shall both ^(A)burn together,
And there will be ^(B)none to quench them.

²⁴ Therefore, ^(A)as a tongue of fire consumes stubble
And dry grass collapses into the flame,
So their ^(B)root will become ^(C)like rot and their blossom ^[a]blow away as dust;
For they have ^(D)rejected the law of Yahweh of hosts
And the word of the Holy One of Israel they have spurned.

¹⁹ By the ^(A)fury of Yahweh of hosts the ^(B)land is burned up,
And the ^(C)people are like fuel for the fire;
No ^(D)man spares his brother.
