(B)they shall pitch their tents around her;
they shall pasture, each in his place.
4 (C)“Prepare war against her;
arise, and let us attack (D)at noon!
Woe to us, for the day declines,
for the shadows of evening lengthen!
5 Arise, and let us attack by night
and destroy her palaces!”

and Israel to the plunderers?
Was it not the Lord, against whom we have sinned,
in whose ways they would not walk,
and whose law they would not obey?
25 So he poured on him the heat of his anger
and the might of battle;
it set him on fire all around, (A)but he did not understand;
it burned him up, (B)but he did not take it to heart.

25 So he poured out on them his burning anger,(E)
the violence of war.
It enveloped them in flames,(F) yet they did not understand;(G)
it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.(H)
