8BecauseH5921 of thisH2088 I must lamentH5594 and wailH3213, I must goH1980 1barefootH7758 and nakedH6174; I must makeH6213 a lamentH4553 like the 2jackalsH8565 And a mourningH60 like the ostrichesH3284.9For her 34woundH4347 is incurableH605, For 5it has comeH935 to JudahH3063; It has reachedH5060 the 6gateH8179 of my peopleH5971, Even to JerusalemH3389.107TellH5046 it not in GathH1661, WeepH1058 not at allH1058. At 8Beth-le-aphrahH1036 rollH6428 yourself in the dustH6083.119GoH5674 on your wayH5674, inhabitantH3427 of 10ShaphirH8208, in 11shamefulH1322 nakednessH6181. The inhabitantH3427 of 1213ZaananH6630 does not 14escapeH3318. The lamentationH4553 of 15Beth-ezelH1018: “He will takeH3947 from you its 16supportH5979.”12For the inhabitantH3427 of 17MarothH4796 BecomesH2342 weakH2470 18waitingH2342 for goodH2896, BecauseH3588 a calamityH7451 has comeH3381 downH3381 from the LordH3068 To the 19gateH8179 of JerusalemH3389.13HarnessH7573 the chariotH4818 to the team of horsesH7409, O inhabitantH3427 of 20LachishH3923-- She was the beginningH7225 of sinH2403 To the daughterH1323 of ZionH6726-- BecauseH3588 in you were foundH4672 The 21rebelliousH6588 actsH6588 of IsraelH3478.14ThereforeH3651 you will giveH5414 partingH7964 22giftsH7964 On behalfH5921 of Moresheth-gathH4182; The housesH1004 of 23AchzibH392 will become a 24deceptionH391 To the kingsH4428 of IsraelH3478.15MoreoverH5750, I will bringH935 on you The one who takesH3423 possessionH3423, O inhabitantH3427 of 2526MareshahH4762. The gloryH3519 of IsraelH3478 will enterH935 27AdullamH5725.16MakeH7139 yourself 28baldH7139 and cutH1494 offH1494 your hairH1494, BecauseH3588 of the childrenH1121 of your delightH8588; ExtendH7337 your baldnessH7144 like the eagleH5404, For they will 29goH1540 from you into exileH1540.
