27 (A)Zion shall be redeemed by justice,
    and those in her who repent, by righteousness.
28 (B)But rebels and sinners shall be broken together,
    and those who forsake the Lord shall be consumed.
29 (C)For they[a] shall be ashamed of (D)the oaks
    that you desired;
and you shall blush for (E)the gardens
    that you have chosen.
30 For you shall be (F)like an oak
    whose leaf withers,
    and like a garden without water.
31 And the strong shall become (G)tinder,
    and his work a spark,
and both of them shall burn together,
    with (H)none to quench them.
