2 Samuel 23:5-7 (New Revised Standard)
5
Is not my house like this with God? For he has made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things and secure. Will he not cause to prosper all my help and my desire?
6
But the godless are a all like thorns that are thrown away; for they cannot be picked up with the hand;
7
to touch them one uses an iron bar or the shaft of a spear. And they are entirely consumed in fire on the spot. b
