Exegesis
The destination phrase lə-gôʾ-attûn {לְגוֹא אַתּוּן | lə-gôʾ-attûn} ‘into the midst of a furnace’ intensifies the threat by specifying the most dangerous location, while nūrā yaqidtā {נוּרָא יָקִדְתָּא | nūrā yaqidtā} ‘fire, burning’ stacks near-synonymous heat imagery to heighten severity. English renders the condition-result structure with clear future consequence while retaining the decree’s terse urgency.
