⁶ I will lay it ^(A)waste;
It shall not be pruned or ^[a]dug,
But there shall come up briers and ^(B)thorns.
I will also command the clouds
That they rain no rain on it.”

⁶ I will send him against ^(A)an ungodly nation,
And against the people of My wrath
I will ^(B)give him charge,
To seize the spoil, to take the prey,
And to tread them down like the mire of the streets.
