A third you shall burn in the fire at the center of the city, when the (A)days of the siege are completed. Then you shall take a third and strike it with the sword all around [a]the city, and a third you shall scatter to the wind; for I will (B)unsheathe a sword behind them. Take also a few hairs in number from [b]them and bind them in the hems of your robes. Take again some of them and throw them into the fire and burn them in the fire; from it a fire will [c]spread to all the house of Israel.
