shall not my house be so with God, although all my saving health and my desire shall not be produced yet? For he has made an everlasting covenant with me, ordered in all things, and it shall be kept;

but those of Belial shall all be as thorns to be chased away, whom no one takes with the hand;

but the one that desires to touch them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear, and they are completely burned with fire in their place.

“If my house were not right with God,
    surely he would not have made with me an everlasting covenant,(A)
    arranged and secured in every part;
surely he would not bring to fruition my salvation
    and grant me my every desire.
But evil men are all to be cast aside like thorns,(B)
    which are not gathered with the hand.
Whoever touches thorns
    uses a tool of iron or the shaft of a spear;
    they are burned up where they lie.”
