and thou shalt say to the forest of Nageb, Hear the word of the Lord; thus saith the Lord, the Lord; Behold, I kindle a fire in thee, and it shall devour in thee every green tree, and every dry tree: the flame that is kindled shall not be quenched, and every face shall be scorched with it from the south to the north.
48
And all flesh shall know that I the Lord have kindled it: it shall not be quenched.
49
And I said, Not so, O Lord God! they say to me, Is not this that is spoken a parable?
