⁶But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns,^(A)
which are not gathered with the hand.

¹⁷Israel’s Light will become a fire,
and its Holy One, a flame.
In one day it will burn up Assyria’s thorns and thistles.

their Holy One^(B) a flame;
in a single day it will burn and consume
his thorns^(C) and his briers.^(D)
