Behold, they are like stubble;

the fire consumes them;

they cannot deliver themselves

from the power of the flame.

No coal for warming oneself is this,

no fire to sit before!

fire burns them.

They cannot rescue themselves

from the power of the flame.

This is not a coal for warming themselves,

or a fire to sit beside!

they cannot save themselves from the flame.

You will get no help from them at all;

their hearth is no place to sit for warmth.

the fire burns them completely.

They cannot deliver themselves from the power of the flame;

no fire before which to sit.
