Therefore, this is what the LORD, the God of armies says: "Because you have spoken this word, Behold, I am ^(C1)making My words fire in your mouth, And this people wood, and it will consume them.

-"Behold, I am ^(C1)bringing a nation against you from far away, you house of Israel," declares the LORD. "It is an enduring nation, It is an ancient nation, A nation whose ^(C2)language you do not know, Nor can you understand what they say.

-"Their ^(C1)quiver is like an ^(C2)open grave, All of them are warriors.

-"They will ^(C1)devour your harvest and your food; They will devour your sons and your daughters; They will devour your flocks and your herds; They will devour your ^(C2)vines and your fig trees; They will demolish your ^(C3)fortified cities, in which you trust, with the sword.
