¹⁷ So the Light of Israel will be for a fire,
And his Holy One for a flame;
^(A)It will burn and devour
His thorns and his briers in one day.

³⁰ The mighty men of Babylon have ceased fighting,
They have remained in their strongholds;
Their might has failed,
^(A)They became like women;
They have burned her dwelling places,
^(B)The bars of her gate are broken.

^32 (A)The passages are blocked,
The reeds they have burned with fire,
And the men of war are terrified.
