Isaiah 33:7–12 — New International Version (2011) (NIV)
7 Look, their brave men cry aloud in the streets;
the envoys of peace weep bitterly.
8 The highways are deserted,
no travelers are on the roads.
The treaty is broken,
its witnesses are despised,
no one is respected.
9 The land dries up and wastes away,
Lebanon is ashamed and withers;
Sharon is like the Arabah,
and Bashan and Carmel drop their leaves.
10 “Now will I arise,” says the Lord.
“Now will I be exalted;
now will I be lifted up.
11 You conceive chaff,
you give birth to straw;
your breath is a fire that consumes you.
12 The peoples will be burned to ashes;
like cut thornbushes they will be set ablaze.”

He hath broken the covenant,
He hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.
9 The earth mourneth and languisheth:
Lebanon is ashamed and hewn down:
Sharon is like a wilderness;
And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.
10 Now will I rise, saith the Lord;
Now will I be exalted;
Now will I lift up myself.
11 Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble:
Your breath, as fire, shall devour you.
12 And the people shall be as the burnings of lime:
As thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.

like thornbushes cut down and tossed in a fire.
