so women will use them for firewood.

so God will not comfort them;

their Maker will not be kind to them.

11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have compassion upon them, and he that formed them will show them no favor.

11 When the branches are dried up, 

they will be broken off.

These people don’t understand ⸤these things⸥. 

That is why their maker won’t have compassion on them, 

and their Creator won’t have pity on them.

11 When its limbs are dry, they are broken off;

Women come and make a fire with them,

For they are not a people of discernment,

Therefore their Maker will not have compassion on them.

And their Creator will not be gracious to them.
