וְשָֽׁמַעְתָּ֙ מַה־יְדַבֵּ֔רוּ וְאַחַר֙ תֶּחֱזַ֣קְנָה יָדֶ֔יךָ וְיָרַדְתָּ֖ בַּֽמַּחֲנֶ֑ה וַיֵּ֤רֶד הוּא֙ וּפֻרָ֣ה נַעֲר֔וֹ אֶל־קְצֵ֥ה הַחֲמֻשִׁ֖ים אֲשֶׁ֥ר בַּֽמַּחֲנֶֽה׃
Engkau akan mendengar apa yang mereka katakan, dan sesudah itu tanganmu akan menjadi kuat, lalu engkau akan turun menyerbu perkemahan itu. Maka turunlah ia bersama Pura, bujangnya, sampai ke ujung barisan orang-orang bersenjata yang ada di perkemahan itu.

At times He makes them into winds, as it is stated: “He renders His angels winds” (Psalms 104:4), and at times, fire, as it is stated: “Flaming fires His servants” (Psalms 104:4).
