1For beholdH2009, the LordH136 1GodH3068 of hostsH6635 2is going to removeH5493 from JerusalemH3389 and JudahH3063 Both 3supplyH4937 and supportH4938, the wholeH3605 4supplyH4937 of breadH3899 And the wholeH3605 5supplyH4937 of waterH4325;26The mightyH1368 manH1368 and the warriorH4421, The judgeH8199 and the prophetH5030, The divinerH7080 and the elderH2205,3The captainH8269 of fiftyH2572 and the honorableH5375H6440 man, The counselorH3289 and the expertH2450 artisanH2796, And the skillfulH995 enchanterH3908.4And I will makeH5414 mere 7ladsH5288 their princesH8269, And 8capriciousH8586 childrenH8586 will ruleH4910 over them,5And the peopleH5971 will be 9oppressedH5065, EachH376 oneH376 by anotherH376, and eachH376 oneH376 by his 10neighborH7453; The youthH5288 will stormH7292 against the elderH2205 And the inferiorH7034 against the honorableH3513.6WhenH3588 a manH376 11laysH8610 holdH8610 of his brotherH251 in his father’sH1 houseH1004, saying, “You have a cloakH8071, you shall be our rulerH7101, And theseH2088 ruinsH4384 will be underH8478 your 12chargeH3027,”7He will 13protestH5375 on that dayH3117, sayingH559, “I will not be your 1415healerH2280, For in my houseH1004 thereH369 is neitherH369 breadH3899 norH369 cloakH8071; You should not appointH7760 me rulerH7101 of the peopleH5971.”8For 16JerusalemH3389 has stumbledH3782 and JudahH3063 has fallenH5307, BecauseH3588 their 1718speechH3956 and their actionsH4611 are againstH413 the LordH3068, To 19rebelH4784 against 20His gloriousH3519 presenceH5869.921The expressionH1971 of their facesH6440 bearsH6030 witnessH6030 against them, And they displayH5046 their sinH2403 like 22SodomH5467; They do not even concealH3582 it. WoeH188 to 23them! For they have 24broughtH1580 evilH7463 on themselves.10SayH559 to the 25righteousH6662 that it will go wellH2895 with them, For they will eatH398 the fruitH6529 of their actionsH4611.11WoeH188 to the wickedH7563! It will go badlyH7451 with him, For 2627whatH1576H3027 he deservesH1576H3027 will be doneH6213 to him.12O My peopleH5971! Their oppressorsH5065 28are 29childrenH5953, And womenH802 ruleH4910 over them. O My peopleH5971! 30Those who guideH833 you leadH8582 you astrayH8582 And confuseH1104 the directionH1870 of your pathsH734.

1331The LordH3068 arisesH5324 to contendH7378, And standsH5975 to judgeH1777 the peopleH5971.14The LordH3068 32entersH935 into judgmentH4941 with the eldersH2205 and princesH8269 of His peopleH5971, “It is you who have 33devouredH1197 the vineyardH3754; The 34plunderH1500 of the poorH6041 is in your housesH1004.15WhatH4100 do you mean by 35crushingH1792 My peopleH5971 And grindingH2912 the faceH6440 of the poorH6041?” DeclaresH5002 the LordH136 36GodH3068 of hostsH6635.

16Moreover, the LordH3068 saidH559, “BecauseH3282H3588 the 37daughtersH1323 of ZionH6726 are proudH1361 And walkH1980 with 38headsH1627 heldH5186 highH5186 and seductiveH8265 eyesH5869, And goH1980 along with mincingH2952 stepsH2952 And tinkleH5913 the banglesH5913 on their feetH7272,
