2 Samuel 23:6

“I have no wrath. Who would ever give Me briars and thorns in the battle? I would step on them, I would burn them completely.

“The peoples will be burned to lime, Like cut thorns which are burned in the fire.

“Now as for you, son of man, do not fear them and do not fear their words, though thistles and briers are with you and you sit on scorpions; neither fear their words nor be dismayed at their presence, for they are a rebellious house.

Like tangled thorns, And like those who are drunken with their drink, They are consumed As stubble fully dried up.
