Then I will 7enterH8199 into judgmentH8199 with them thereH8033 On behalfH5921 of My peopleH5971 and My inheritanceH5159, IsraelH3478, WhomH834 they have 8scatteredH6340 among the nationsH1471; And they have 9dividedH2505 up My landH776.3They have also 10castH3032 lotsH1486 for My peopleH5971, 11 12TradedH5414 a boyH3206 for a harlotH2181 And soldH4376 a girlH3207 for wineH3196 that they may drinkH8354. 4MoreoverH1571, whatH4100 are you to Me, O 13TyreH6865, SidonH6721 and allH3605 the regionsH1552 of 14PhilistiaH6429?
