Therefore as the tongue of fire devoureth the stubble, and as the dry grass sinketh down in the flame, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust; because they have rejected the law of Jehovah of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
For this thing, as þe tunge of fier deuourith stobil, and þe heete of flawme brenneth, so þe roote of hem schal be as a deed sparcle, and þe seed of hem schal stie as dust; for þei castiden awei þe lawe of þe Lord of oostis, and blasfemyden þe speche of þe hooli of Israel.
