Lexicon :: Strong's H3852 - lehāḇâ

For fire came out of Heshbon,

a flame from the city of Sihon.

It consumed Ar of Moab,

the citizens of Arnon’s heights.

His spear shaft was like a weaver’s beam, and the iron point of his spear weighed fifteen pounds.[fn] In addition, a shield-bearer was walking in front of him.

The voice of the LORD flashes flames of fire.

As fire burns a forest,

as a flame blazes through mountains,

He gave them hail for rain,

and lightning throughout their land.

Fire blazed throughout their assembly;

flames consumed the wicked.

Then the LORD will create a cloud of smoke by day and a glowing flame of fire by night over the entire site of Mount Zion and over its assemblies. For there will be a canopy over all the glory,[fn]

Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw

and as dry grass shrivels in the flame,

so their roots will become like something rotten

and their blossoms will blow away like dust,

for they have rejected

the instruction of the LORD of Armies,

and they have despised

the word of the Holy One of Israel.

Israel’s Light will become a fire,

and its Holy One, a flame.

In one day it will burn and consume Assyria’s thorns and thistles.

“When you pass through the waters,

I will be with you,

and the rivers will not overwhelm you.

When you walk through the fire,

you will not be scorched,

and the flame will not burn you.

“Look, they are like stubble;

fire burns them.

They cannot rescue themselves

from the power of the flame.

This is not a coal for warming themselves,

or a fire to sit beside!

Those who flee will stand exhausted in Heshbon’s shadow

because fire has come out from Heshbon

and a flame from within Sihon.

It will devour Moab’s forehead

and the skull of the noisemakers.

He has cut off every horn of Israel

in his burning anger

and withdrawn his right hand

in the presence of the enemy.

He has blazed against Jacob like a flaming fire

that consumes everything.

“and say to the forest there, ‘Hear the word of the LORD! This is what the Lord GOD says: I am about to ignite a fire in you, and it will devour every green tree and every dry tree in you. The blazing flame will not be extinguished, and every face from the south to the north will be scorched by it.

“Those who have insight among the people will give understanding to many, yet they will fall by the sword and flame, and they will be captured and plundered for a time.

For they ​— ​their hearts like an oven —

draw him into their oven.

Their anger smolders all night;

in the morning it blazes like a flaming fire.

I call to you, LORD,

for fire has consumed

the pastures of the wilderness,

and flames have devoured

all the trees of the orchard.

A fire devours in front of them,

and behind them a flame blazes.

The land in front of them

is like the garden of Eden,

but behind them,

it is like a desert wasteland;

there is no escape from them.

Then the house of Jacob will be a blazing fire,

and the house of Joseph, a burning flame,

but the house of Esau will be stubble;

Jacob[fn] will set them on fire and consume Edom.[fn]

Therefore no survivor will remain

of the house of Esau,

for the LORD has spoken.
