10 Who among you fears the Lord
    and obeys the voice of his servant,
who walks in darkness
    and has no light,
yet trusts in the name of the Lord
    and relies upon his God?(A)
11 But all of you are kindlers of fire,
    lighters of firebrands.[a]
Walk in the flame of your fire
    and among the brands that you have kindled!
This is what you shall have from my hand:
    you shall lie down in torment.(B)

  1. 50.11 Syr: Heb you gird yourselves with firebrands

10 Who among you fears[a] the Lord,
    obeying the voice of his servant,
who among you[b] walks[c] in darkness[d]
    and has no light?
Let him trust in the name of the Lord,
    and rely upon his God.
11 Look! All those[e] who light a fire,
    who surround yourselves with flaming torches—
walk by the light of your fire,
    and by the torches that you have set ablaze!
This is what you will receive from my hand:
    you will lie down in torment.
