Isaiah 33:11-13
New English Translation

11 You conceive straw,[a]
you give birth to chaff;
your breath is a fire that destroys you.[b]
12 The nations will be burned to ashes;[c]
like thorn bushes that have been cut down, they will be set on fire.
13 You who are far away, listen to what I have done!
You who are close by, recognize my strength.”
