7ThereforeH3651, they will nowH6258 1goH1540 into exileH1540 at the headH7218 of the exilesH1540, And the 2sprawlers’H5628 3banquetingH4798 will 4passH5493 awayH5493.

8The LordH136 5GodH3068 has 6swornH7650 by HimselfH5315, the LordH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635 has declaredH5002: “I 7loatheH8374 the arroganceH1347 of JacobH3290, And 8detestH8130 his 9citadelsH759; Therefore I will 10deliverH5462 up the cityH5892 and 11allH4393 it containsH4393.” 9And it will be, ifH518 12tenH6235 menH376 are leftH3498 in oneH259 houseH1004, they will dieH4191. 10Then one’s 13uncleH1730, or his 1415undertakerH8313, will liftH5375 him up to carryH3318 out his bonesH6106 from the houseH1004, and he will sayH559 to the one whoH834 is in the innermostH3411 partH3411 of the houseH1004, “Is anyone elseH5750 with you?” And that one will sayH559, “NoH657 oneH657.” Then he will 16answerH559, “17KeepH2013 quietH2013. For 18the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 is 19not to be mentionedH2142.” 11For beholdH2009, the LordH3068 is going to 20commandH6680 that the 21greatH1419 houseH1004 be smashedH5221 to piecesH7447 and the smallH6996 houseH1004 to fragmentsH1233.
