Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns, whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!
Psalms 58:6-9 The Message (MSG)
God, smash their teeth to bits, leave them toothless tigers. Let their lives be buckets of water spilled, all that’s left, a damp stain in the sand.

Before what they cook up is half-done, God, throw it out with the garbage!
