24 (A)He will flee from the iron weapon;
A bronze bow will pierce him through.
25 It is drawn, and comes out of the body;
Yes, (B)the glittering point comes out of his [a]gall.
(C)Terrors come upon him;
26 Total darkness is reserved for his treasures.
(D)An unfanned fire will consume him;
It shall go ill with him who is left in his tent.
