19 By the wrath(A) of the Lord Almighty
    the land will be scorched(B)
and the people will be fuel for the fire;(C)
    they will not spare one another.(D)

    but still be hungry;(E)
on the left they will eat,(F)
    but not be satisfied.

    together they will turn against Judah.(H)

Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
    his hand is still upraised.(I)
