I am not angry.
But if there is war and someone builds a wall of thornbushes,[a]
    then I will march to it and burn it.
But if anyone comes to me for safety
    and wants to make peace with me,
    then let them come and make peace.
In the future, Jacob will take root firmly on his soil.
    Then Israel will sprout and bloom,
    and the world will be filled with his fruit.”
