6For they—their hearts like an oven—

draw him into their oven.

Their anger smolders all night;

in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.

7All of them are as hot as an oven,w

and they consume their rulers.x

All their kings fall;

not one of them calls on me.B

in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.

All their kings have fallen;

there is none who calls to me amongst them.

For they have made ready their heart like an oven, whiles they lie in wait:

Their baker sleepeth all the night;

In the morning it burneth as a flaming fire.

They are all hot as an oven,

And have devoured their judges;

All their kings are fallen:

There is none among them that calleth unto me.
