Run ye to and froH7751 through the streetsH2351 of JerusalemH3389, and seeH7200 now, and knowH3045, and seekH1245 in the broad placesH7339 thereof, if ye can findH4672 a manH376, if there beH3426 any that executethH6213 judgmentH4941, that seekethH1245 the truthH530; and I will pardonH5545 it.
And though they sayH559, The LORDH3068 livethH2416; surely they swearH7650 falselyH8267.
O LORDH3068, are not thine eyesH5869 upon the truthH530? thou hast strickenH5221 them, but they have not grievedH2342; thou hast consumedH3615 them, but they have refusedH3985 to receiveH3947 correctionH4148: they have made their facesH6440 harderH2388 than a rockH5553; they have refusedH3985 to returnH7725.
Therefore I saidH559, Surely these are poorH1800; they are foolishH2973: for they knowH3045 not the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, nor the judgmentH4941 of their GodH430.
I will getH3212 me unto the great menH1419, and will speakH1696 unto them; for they have knownH3045 the wayH1870 of the LORDH3068, and the judgmentH4941 of their GodH430: but these have altogetherH3162 brokenH7665 the yokeH5923, and burstH5423 the bondsH4147.
Wherefore a lionH738 out of the forestH3293 shall slayH5221 them, and a wolfH2061 of the eveningsH6160 shall spoilH7703 them, a leopardH5246 shall watchH8245 over their citiesH5892: every one that goeth outH3318 thence shallH2007 be torn in piecesH2963: because their transgressionsH6588 are manyH7231, and their backslidingsH4878 are increasedH6105. {evenings: or, deserts} {are increased: Heb. are strong}
HowH335 shall I pardonH5545 thee for thisH2063? thy childrenH1121 have forsakenH5800 me, and swornH7650 by them that are noH3808 godsH430: when I had fed them to the fullH7650, they then committed adulteryH5003, and assembled themselves by troopsH1413 in the harlots'H2181 housesH1004.
They were as fedH2109 horsesH5483 in the morningH7904: every oneH376 neighedH6670 after his neighbour'sH7453 wifeH802.
Shall I not visitH6485 for these things? saithH5002 the LORDH3068: and shall not my soulH5315 be avengedH5358 on such a nationH1471 as this?
Go ye upH5927 upon her wallsH8284, and destroyH7843; but makeH6213 not a full endH3617: take awayH5493 her battlementsH5189; for they are not the LORD'SH3068.
For the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have dealt veryH898 treacherouslyH898 against me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
They have beliedH3584 the LORDH3068, and saidH559, It is not he; neither shall evilH7451 comeH935 upon us; neither shall we seeH7200 swordH2719 nor famineH7458:
And the prophetsH5030 shall become windH7307, and the wordH1696 is not in them: thus shall it be doneH6213 unto them.
Wherefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 GodH430 of hostsH6635, Because ye speakH1696 this wordH1697, behold, I will makeH5414 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310 fireH784, and this peopleH5971 woodH6086, and it shall devourH398 them.
Lo, I will bringH935 a nationH1471 upon you from farH4801, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saithH5002 the LORDH3068: it is a mightyH386 nationH1471, it is an ancientH5769 nationH1471, a nationH1471 whose languageH3956 thou knowestH3045 not, neither understandestH8085 what they sayH1696.
Their quiverH827 is as an openH6605 sepulchreH6913, they are all mighty menH1368.
And they shall eat upH398 thine harvestH7105, and thy breadH3899, which thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 should eatH398: they shall eat upH398 thy flocksH6629 and thine herdsH1241: they shall eat upH398 thy vinesH1612 and thy fig treesH8384: they shall impoverishH7567 thy fencedH4013 citiesH5892, wherein thouH2007 trustedstH982, with the swordH2719.
Nevertheless in those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, I will not makeH6213 a full endH3617 with you.
And it shall come to pass, when ye shall sayH559, WhereforeH8478+H4100 doethH6213 the LORDH3068 our GodH430 all these things unto us? then shalt thou answerH559 them, Like as ye have forsakenH5800 me, and servedH5647 strangeH5236 godsH430 in your landH776, so shall ye serveH5647 strangersH2114 in a landH776 that is not yours.
DeclareH5046 this in the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, and publishH8085 it in JudahH3063, sayingH559,
HearH8085 now this, O foolishH5530 peopleH5971, and without understandingH3820; which have eyesH5869, and seeH7200 not; which have earsH241, and hearH8085 not: {understanding: Heb. heart}
FearH3372 ye not me? saithH5002 the LORDH3068: will ye not trembleH2342 at my presenceH6440, which have placedH7760 the sandH2344 for the boundH1366 of the seaH3220 by a perpetualH5769 decreeH2706, that it cannot passH5674 it: and though the wavesH1530 thereof tossH1607 themselves, yet can they not prevailH3201; though they roarH1993, yet can they not pass overH5674 it?
But this peopleH5971 hath a revoltingH5637 and a rebelliousH4784 heartH3820; they are revoltedH5493 and goneH3212.
Neither sayH559 they in their heartH3824, Let us now fearH3372 the LORDH3068 our GodH430, that givethH5414 rainH1653, both the formerH3138 and the latterH4456, in his seasonH6256: he reservethH8104 unto us the appointedH2708 weeksH7620 of the harvestH7105.
Your iniquitiesH5771 have turned awayH5186 these things, and your sinsH2403 have withholdenH4513 goodH2896 things from you.
For among my peopleH5971 are foundH4672 wickedH7563 men: they lay waitH7789, as he that settethH7918 snaresH3353; they setH5324 a trapH4889, they catchH3920 menH582. {they lay…: or, they pry as fowlers lie in wait}
As a cageH3619 is fullH4392 of birdsH5775, so are their housesH1004 fullH4392 of deceitH4820: therefore they are become greatH1431, and waxen richH6238. {cage: or, coop}
They are waxen fatH8080, they shineH6245: yea, they overpassH5674 the deedsH1697 of the wickedH7451: they judgeH1777 not the causeH1779, the cause of the fatherlessH3490, yet they prosperH6743; and the rightH4941 of the needyH34 do they not judgeH8199.
Shall I not visitH6485 for these things? saithH5002 the LORDH3068: shall not my soulH5315 be avengedH5358 on such a nationH1471 as this?
A wonderfulH8047 and horrible thingH8186 is committedH1961 in the landH776; {A wonderful…: or, Astonishment and filthiness}
The prophetsH5030 prophesyH5012 falselyH8267, and the priestsH3548 bear ruleH7287 by their meansH3027; and my peopleH5971 loveH157 to have it so: and what will ye doH6213 in the endH319 thereof? {bear…: or, take into their hands}

I also will doH6213 this unto you; I will even appointH6485 over you terrorH928, consumptionH7829, and the burning agueH6920, that shall consumeH3615 the eyesH5869, and cause sorrowH1727 of heartH5315: and ye shall sowH2232 your seedH2233 in vainH7385, for your enemiesH341 shall eatH398 it. {over: Heb. upon}
For, lo, I will callH7121 all the familiesH4940 of the kingdomsH4467 of the northH6828, saithH5002 the LORDH3068; and they shall comeH935, and they shall setH5414 every oneH376 his throneH3678 at the enteringH6607 of the gatesH8179 of JerusalemH3389, and against all the wallsH2346 thereof round aboutH5439, and against all the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063.
Thou shalt betrothH781 a wifeH802, and anotherH312 manH376 shall lieH7901+H7693 with her: thou shalt buildH1129 an houseH1004, and thou shalt not dwellH3427 therein: thou shalt plantH5193 a vineyardH3754, and shalt not gather the grapesH2490 thereof. {gather…: Heb. profane, or, use it as common meat}
The lionH738 is come upH5927 from his thicketH5441, and the destroyerH7843 of the GentilesH1471 is on his wayH5265; he is gone forthH3318 from his placeH4725 to makeH7760 thy landH776 desolateH8047; and thy citiesH5892 shall be laid wasteH5327, without an inhabitantH3427.
Thine oxH7794 shall be slainH2873 before thine eyesH5869, and thou shalt not eatH398 thereof: thine assH2543 shall be violently taken awayH1497 from before thy faceH6440, and shall not be restoredH7725 to thee: thy sheepH6629 shall be givenH5414 unto thine enemiesH341, and thou shalt have none to rescueH3467 them. {shall not…: Heb. shall not return to thee}
I beheldH7200, and, lo, the fruitful placeH3759 was a wildernessH4057, and all the citiesH5892 thereof were broken downH5422 at the presenceH6440 of the LORDH3068, and by his fierceH2740 angerH639.
The fruitH6529 of thy landH127, and all thy laboursH3018, shall a nationH5971 which thou knowestH3045 not eat upH398; and thou shalt be only oppressedH6231 and crushedH7533 alwayH3117:
The LordH136 hath swallowed upH1104 all the habitationsH4999 of JacobH3290, and hath not pitiedH2550: he hath thrown downH2040 in his wrathH5678 the strong holdsH4013 of the daughterH1323 of JudahH3063; he hath brought them downH5060 to the groundH776: he hath pollutedH2490 the kingdomH4467 and the princesH8269 thereof. {brought…: Heb. made to touch}
And so it was, when IsraelH3478 had sownH2232, that the MidianitesH4080 came upH5927, and the AmalekitesH6002, and the childrenH1121 of the eastH6924, even they came upH5927 against them;
Therefore, ye mountainsH2022 of IsraelH3478, hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH136 GODH3069; Thus saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069 to the mountainsH2022, and to the hillsH1389, to the riversH650, and to the valleysH1516, to the desolateH8074 wastesH2723, and to the citiesH5892 that are forsakenH5800, which became a preyH957 and derisionH3933 to the residueH7611 of the heathenH1471 that are round aboutH5439; {rivers: or, bottoms, or, dales}
And they encampedH2583 against them, and destroyedH7843 the increaseH2981 of the earthH776, till thou comeH935 unto GazaH5804, and leftH7604 no sustenanceH4241 for IsraelH3478, neither sheepH7716, nor oxH7794, nor assH2543. {sheep: or goat}
I have cut offH3772 the nationsH1471: their towersH6438 are desolateH8074; I made their streetsH2351 wasteH2717, that none passeth byH5674: their citiesH5892 are destroyedH6658, so that there is no manH376, that there is none inhabitantH3427. {towers: or, corners}
But they that have gatheredH622 it shall eatH398 it, and praiseH1984 the LORDH3068; and they that have brought it togetherH6908 shall drinkH8354 it in the courtsH2691 of my holinessH6944.
They shall not buildH1129, and anotherH312 inhabitH3427; they shall not plantH5193, and anotherH312 eatH398: for as the daysH3117 of a treeH6086 are the daysH3117 of my peopleH5971, and mine electH972 shall long enjoyH1086 the workH4639 of their handsH3027. {shall long…: Heb. shall make them continue long, or, shall wear out}
Although the fig treeH8384 shall not blossomH6524, neither shall fruitH2981 be in the vinesH1612; the labourH4639 of the oliveH2132 shall failH3584, and the fieldsH7709 shall yieldH6213 no meatH400; the flockH6629 shall be cut offH1504 from the foldH4356, and there shall be no herdH1241 in the stallsH7517: {fail: Heb. lie}
