17 “The light of Israel will become a fire,
    and its Holy One a flame,
and it will burn
    and consume Assyria’s[a] thorns and briers
        in a single day.

    the Lord will destroy—
        both soul and body—

19 What survives of the trees in his forest will be so few
    that a child can count them.”[c]
