271IfH518 thisH2088 peopleH5971 goH5927 upH5927 to 2offerH6213 sacrificesH2077 in the houseH1004 of the LordH3068 in JerusalemH3389, then the heartH3820 of thisH2088 peopleH5971 will returnH7725 to their lordH113, to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063; and they will killH2026 me and returnH7725 to RehoboamH7346 kingH4428 of JudahH3063.”
