11At thatH1931 timeH6256 it will be saidH559 to thisH2088 peopleH5971 and to JerusalemH3389, “A searingH6703 windH7307 from the barren heightsH8205 in the desertH4057 blows towardH1870 the daughterH1323 of My peopleH5971, but notH3808 to winnowH2219H3808 or to siftH1305; 12a windH7307 too strongH4392 for thatH428 comesH935 from Me. NowH6258 IH589 alsoH1571 pronounceH1696 judgmentsH4941 against themH854.”

13BeholdH2009, he advancesH5927 like the cloudsH6051,his chariotsH4818 like the whirlwindH5492.His horsesH5483 are swifterH7043 than eaglesH5404.WoeH188 to us, forH3588 we are ruinedH7703!14WashH3526 the evilH7451 from your heartH3820, O JerusalemH3389,so thatH4616 you may be savedH3467.How longH5704H4970 will you harborH3885wickedH205 thoughtsH4284 within youH7130?15ForH3588 a voiceH6963 resoundsH5046 from DanH1835,proclaimingH8085 disasterH205 from the hillsH2022 of EphraimH669.16WarnH2142 the nationsH1471 nowH2009!ProclaimH8085 toH5921 JerusalemH3389:“A besieging armyH5341 comesH935 from a distantH4801 landH776;they raiseH5414 their voicesH6963 againstH5921 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.17They surround herH5439 like men guardingH8104 a fieldH7704H1961H5921,becauseH3588 she has rebelled against MeH4784,” declaresH5002 the LORDH3068.18“Your waysH1870 and deedsH4611have broughtH6213 thisH428 upon you.ThisH2063 is your punishmentH7451; how bitter it isH4751H3588,becauseH3588 it piercesH5060 to theH5704 heartH3820!”
