Then the nations will know that I am the Lord, the Holy One in Israel. “ ‘It’s coming! It will happen! declares the Almighty Lord.

They will burn small and large shields, bows and arrows, and war clubs and spears. They will burn them for seven years. 10They will not need to get wood from the field or cut down trees in the woods. They will make fires with the weapons. They will loot those who looted them, and they will grab things back from those who grabbed their things, declares the Almighty Lord.
