Judgment Proclaimed
14 Therefore, this is what the Lord, the God of armies says:
“Because you have spoken this word,
Behold, I am (A)making My words fire in your mouth,
And this people wood, and it will consume them.
15 Behold, I am (B)bringing a nation against you from far away, you house of Israel,” declares the Lord.
“It is an enduring nation,
It is an ancient nation,
A nation whose (C)language you do not know,
Nor can you understand what they say.
16 Their (D)quiver is like an (E)open grave,
All of them are warriors.
17 They will (F)devour your harvest and your food;
They will devour your sons and your daughters;
They will devour your flocks and your herds;
They will devour your (G)vines and your fig trees;
They will demolish your (H)fortified cities, in which you trust, with the sword.

14 Therefore this is what the Lord God Almighty says:
“Because the people have spoken these words,
I will make my words in your mouth(A) a fire(B)
and these people the wood it consumes.(C)
15 People of Israel,” declares the Lord,
“I am bringing a distant nation(D) against you—
an ancient and enduring nation,
a people whose language(E) you do not know,
whose speech you do not understand.
16 Their quivers(F) are like an open grave;
all of them are mighty warriors.
17 They will devour(G) your harvests and food,
devour(H) your sons and daughters;
they will devour(I) your flocks and herds,
devour your vines and fig trees.(J)
With the sword(K) they will destroy
the fortified cities(L) in which you trust.(M)
