12 Can anyone break iron,
The northern iron and the bronze?
13 Your wealth and your treasures
I will give as (A)plunder without price,
Because of all your sins,
Throughout your territories.
14 And I will [a]make you cross over with your enemies
(B)Into a land which you do not know;
For a (C)fire is kindled in My anger,
Which shall burn upon you.”
