    I have no wrath.[a]
Whatever gives me thorns and briers,
    I will step forth against in battle.
    I will set it on fire altogether.
Or let it grasp at my protection;
    let it make peace with me;
    peace let it make with me.”
Days are coming,[b] let Jacob take root;
    Israel will blossom and send out shoots,
    and they will fill the face of the world with fruit.
