Isaiah 1:31 And the strong shall be as wick, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them. "The strong shall become tow, and his work a spark, and both shall burn together" — a vivid picture of the doom of transgressors, since the mighty man is made combustible, and his own act is that which kindles the flame. (T. W. Chambers, D. D.) Parallel Verses KJV: And the strong shall be as tow, and the maker of it as a spark, and they shall both burn together, and none shall quench them. |
