¹⁷ A thousand will flee
    at the threat of one;
at the threat of five^(A)
    you will all flee^(B) away,
till you are left^(C)
    like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
    like a banner^(D) on a hill.”

³³ Topheth^(A) has long been prepared;
    it has been made ready for the king.
Its fire pit has been made deep and wide,
    with an abundance of fire and wood;
the breath^(B) of the Lord,
    like a stream of burning sulfur,^(C)
    sets it ablaze.^(D)
