Then I would sendH4305 rainH4305 on oneH259 cityH5892 And on 4anotherH259 cityH5892 I would not sendH4305 rainH4305; OneH259 partH2513 would be rainedH4305 on, While the partH2513 not rainedH4305 on would dryH3001 up.8So twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 would staggerH5128 to anotherH259 cityH5892 to drinkH8354 5waterH4325, But would 6not be satisfiedH7646; Yet you have 7not returnedH7725 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.9“I 8smoteH5221 you with scorchingH7711 wind and mildewH3420; And the 9caterpillarH1501 was devouringH398 Your manyH7235 gardensH1593 and vineyardsH3754, figH8384 treesH8384 and oliveH2132 treesH2132; Yet you have 10not returnedH7725 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.10“I sentH7971 a 11plagueH1698 among you after the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714; I 12slewH2026 your youngH970 menH970 by the swordH2719 alongH5973 with your 13capturedH7628 horsesH5483, And I made the 14stenchH889 of your campH4264 riseH5927 up in your nostrilsH639; Yet you have 15not returnedH7725 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.11“I overthrewH2015 you, as 16GodH430 overthrewH4114 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, And you were like a 17firebrandH181 snatchedH5337 from a blazeH8316; Yet you have 18not returnedH7725 to Me,” declaresH5002 the LordH3068.12“ThereforeH3651 thusH3541 I will doH6213 to you, O IsraelH3478; BecauseH6118H3588 I will doH6213 thisH2088 to you, PrepareH3559 to 19meetH7122 your GodH430, O IsraelH3478.”
