16 Therefore the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, will send leanness among his sturdy warriors,
    and a burning like the burning of fire will burn under his glory.
17 And the light of Israel will become like a fire,
    and his holy one like a flame,
and it will burn and devour his thorns[a] and briers[b] in one day.
18 And he will destroy the glory of his forest and orchard completely,[c]
    and it will be like the wasting away of one who is sick.
