Isa 1:31 · Douay-Rheims
“And your strength shall be as the ashes of tow, and your work as a spark: and both shall burn together, and there shall be none to quench it.”
On this verse:
“strong--powerful rulers (Amo 2:9). maker of it--rather, his work. He shall be at once the fuel, "tow," and the cause of the fire, by kindling the first "spark." both--the wicked ruler, and "his work," which "is as a spark." Next: Isaiah Chapter 2”
