³³ For Topheth has long been ready , Indeed , it has been prepared for the king . He has made it deep and large , A pyre of fire with plenty of wood ; The breath of the Lord , like a torrent of brimstone , sets it afire .

³³ Topheth-the place of burning- has long been ready for the Assyrian king; the pyre is piled high with wood. The breath of the Lord, like fire from a volcano, will set it ablaze.
