And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, [then] come [and] put your trust in my shadow: and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.
And the bramble {H329} said {H559} unto the trees {H6086}, If in truth {H571} ye anoint {H4886} me king {H4428} over you, then come {H935} and put your trust {H2620} in my shadow {H6738}: and if not, let fire {H784} come out {H3318} of the bramble {H329}, and devour {H398} the cedars {H730} of Lebanon {H3844}.
The thorn bush replied, 'If you really make me king over you, then come and take shelter in my shade. But if not, let fire come out of the thorn bush and burn down the cedars of the L'vanon!'
But the thornbush replied, ‘If you really are anointing me as king over you, come and find refuge in my shade. But if not, may fire come out of the thornbush and consume the cedars of Lebanon.’
And the bramble said unto the trees, If in truth ye anoint me king over you, then come and take refuge in my shade; and if not, let fire come out of the bramble, and devour the cedars of Lebanon.
