MSB(i)
4 I am not angry. If only thorns and briers confronted Me, I would march and trample them, I would burn them to the ground.
5 Or let them lay claim to My protection; let them make peace with Me—yes, let them make peace with Me.”
6 In the days to come, Jacob will take root. Israel will bud and blossom and fill the whole world with fruit.
7 Has the LORD struck Israel as He struck her oppressors? Was she killed like those who slayed her?
8 By warfare and exile You contended with her and removed her with a fierce wind, as on the day the east wind blows.
