12. Can one break iron, iron from the north, and bronze?
13. “Your wealth and your treasures I will give as spoil, without price, for all your sins, throughout all your territory.
14. I will make you serve your enemies in a land that you do not know, for in my anger a fire is kindled that shall burn forever.”
15. O Lord, you know; remember me and visit me, and take vengeance for me on my persecutors.In your forbearance take me not away; know that for your sake I bear reproach.
