20. Just as silver, copper, iron, lead, and tin are melted down in a furnace, I will melt you down in the heat of my fury.
21. I will gather you together and blow the fire of my anger upon you,
22. and you will melt like silver in fierce heat. Then you will know that I, the lord, have poured out my fury on you.’”
