1ForH3588 beholdH2009, the LordH113 GODH3068 of HostsH6635 is about to removeH5493 from JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063 both supplyH49371 and supportH4938: the wholeH3605 supplyH4937 of foodH3899H3605H4937 and waterH4325,2the mighty manH1368 and the warriorH376H4421, the judgeH8199 and the prophetH5030, the soothsayerH7080 and the elderH2205,3the commanderH8269 of fiftyH2572 and the dignitaryH5375H6440, the counselorH3289, the cunningH2450 magicianH2791, and the cleverH995 enchanterH3908.

4“I will makeH5414 mere ladsH5288 their leadersH8269,and childrenH8586 will ruleH4910 over them.”
5The peopleH5971 will oppress one anotherH5065,manH376 against manH376, neighborH376 against neighborH7453;the youngH5288 will rise upH7292 against the oldH2205,and the baseH7034 against the honorableH3513.
6A manH376 will seizeH8610 his brotherH251within his father’sH1 houseH1004:“You have a cloakH8071—you beH1961 our leaderH7101!Take chargeH8478H3027 of thisH2063 heap of rubbleH4384.”
7On thatH1931 dayH3117 he will cry aloudH5375:“I amH1961 notH3808 a healerH2280.2I have noH369 foodH3899H369 or clothingH8071 in my houseH1004.Do notH3808 make meH7760 leaderH7101 of the peopleH5971!”
8ForH3588 JerusalemH3389 has stumbledH3782and JudahH3063 has fallenH5307becauseH3588 they spokeH3956 and actedH4611 againstH413 the LORDH3068,defyingH4784 His gloriousH3519 presenceH5869.3
