1599 Geneva Bible
7 Let them [a]melt like the waters, let them pass away; when he shooteth his arrows, let them be as broken.
8 Let them consume like a snail that melteth, and like the untimely fruit of a woman, that hath not seen the sun.
9 [b]As raw flesh before your pots feel the fire of thorns: so let them carry them away as with a whirlwind in his wrath.
