16 Look, I have created the craftsman
who blows on the charcoal fire
and produces a weapon suitable for its task;
and I have created the destroyer to cause havoc.
17 No weapon formed against you will succeed,
and you will refute any accusation[a]
raised against you in court.
This is the heritage of the Lord’s servants,(A)
and their righteousness is from Me.”(B)
This is the Lord’s declaration.

    who fans the coals into flame
    and forges a weapon(B) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer(C) to wreak havoc;
17     no weapon forged against you will prevail,(D)
    and you will refute(E) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants(F) of the Lord,
    and this is their vindication(G) from me,”
