“If you have raced with men on foot, and they have wearied you,
    how will you compete with horses?
And if in a safe land you are so trusting,
    what will you do in (A)the thicket of the Jordan?
For (B)even your brothers and the house of your father,
    (C)even they have dealt treacherously with you;
    they are in full cry after you;

    into the hands of her enemies.
