| 20. Formal Translation As silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin are assembled into a furnace, and fire is blown upon them to liquefy them, so I {Yahweh, Supreme Judge} will gather you in my anger and in my wrath, and I will set you there and melt you. |
| 20. Dynamic Translation Just as silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin are placed into a furnace and subjected to a blast of fire until they melt down, so I {Yahweh, Avenging One} will bring you together in my anger and my wrath, leave you there, and melt you down. |
