As when the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil, to make thy name known to thine adversaries, that the nations may tremble at thy presence!
As (when) the melting fire burneth, the fire causeth the waters to boil: to make thy name known to thine adversaries. Oh that thy wrath would consume thy foes as the fire of meltings burneth. Or, 'as the fire burneth the dry brushwood' х hªmaaciym (H2003)] (Gesenius). But the Vulgate, Septuagint, and Chaldaic virtually support the English version, from maacac (H4549), to melt.
