In context

11You too will become drunk; you will go into hiding and seek refuge from the enemy.

12All your fortresses are fig trees with the first ripe figs; when shaken, they fall into the mouth of the eater!

13Look at your troops— they are like your women! The gates of your land are wide open to your enemies; fire consumes their bars.

14Draw your water for the siege; strengthen your fortresses. Work the clay and tread the mortar; repair the brick kiln!

15There the fire will devour you; the sword will cut you down and consume you like a young locust. Make yourself many like the young locust; make yourself many like the swarming locust!
