24     Let him attempt to escape the iron weapon.
        Instead, a bow of bronze will send death to tear into him.
25     When the arrow is drawn it comes out of his back,
        and the shining arrowhead comes out of his organ,
        bringing terror upon him.
26     A great darkness waits for and stalks everything he values.
        A mysterious fire—unstoked yet burning hot—will consume him
        and devour everything and everyone left behind in his tent.
