24 Who gave up Jacob to the spoiler
    and Israel to the robbers?
Was it not the Lord, against whom they sinned,[a]
    in whose ways they would not walk,
    and whose law they would not obey?(A)
25 So he poured upon him the heat of his anger
    and the fury of war;
it set him on fire all around, but he did not understand;
    it burned him, but he did not take it to heart.(B)

    and Israel to the plunderers?

    in whose ways they would not walk,
    and whose law they would not obey?

    and the might of battle;

    it burned him up, (B)but he did not take it to heart.
