27:4I am not angry.
I wish I could confront some thorns and briers!
Then I would march against them10 for battle;
I would set them11 all on fire,

For other examples of a cohortative expressing resolve after a hypothetical statement introduced by נָתַן with מִי (mi̠ with natan), see Judg 9:29; Jer 9:1–2; Ps 55:6.
- 11 Heb “it.” The feminine singular suffix apparently refers back to the expression “thorns and briers,” understood in a collective sense.
