Isaiah 9:17-18

17Therefore the Lord does 1not take pleasure in their young men, 2Nor does He have pity on their 3orphans or their widows; For every one of them is 4godless and an 5evildoer, And every 6mouth is speaking foolishness. 7In spite of all this, His anger does not turn away And His hand is still stretched out.

188For wickedness burns like a fire; It consumes briars and thorns; It even sets the thickets of the forest aflame And they roll upward in a column of smoke.
