Yea; the thing is true and certain, notwithstanding thy dissatisfaction and opposition against it. The light of the wicked shall be put out; all their glory and felicity shall perish. The spark of his fire, i.e. their highest and brightest glory, which he calleth the spark, &c., because, like a spark, it shines briskly for a moment, but is quickly extinct.
