Oh thatH5414 my headH7218 were watersH4325, and mine eyesH5869 a fountainH4726 of tearsH1832, that I might weepH1058 dayH3119 and nightH3915 for the slainH2491 of the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971! {Oh…: Heb. Who will give my head, etc}
Oh thatH5414 I had in the wildernessH4057 a lodging placeH4411 of wayfaring menH732; that I might leaveH5800 my peopleH5971, and goH3212 from them! for they be all adulterersH5003, an assemblyH6116 of treacherous menH898.
And they bendH1869 their tonguesH3956 like their bowH7198 for liesH8267: but they are not valiantH1396 for the truthH530 upon the earthH776; for they proceedH3318 from evilH7451 to evilH7451, and they knowH3045 not me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Take ye heedH8104 every oneH376 of his neighbourH7453, and trustH982 ye not in any brotherH251: for every brotherH251 will utterlyH6117 supplantH6117, and every neighbourH7453 will walkH1980 with slandersH7400. {neighbour: or, friend}
And they will deceiveH2048 every oneH376 his neighbourH7453, and will not speakH1696 the truthH571: they have taughtH3925 their tongueH3956 to speakH1696 liesH8267, and wearyH3811 themselves to commit iniquityH5753. {deceive: or, mock}
Thine habitationH3427 is in the midstH8432 of deceitH4820; through deceitH4820 they refuseH3985 to knowH3045 me, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, Behold, I will meltH6884 them, and tryH974 them; for how shall I doH6213 forH6440 the daughterH1323 of my peopleH5971?
Their tongueH3956 is as an arrowH2671 shot outH7819; it speakethH1696 deceitH4820: one speakethH1696 peaceablyH7965 to his neighbourH7453 with his mouthH6310, but in heartH7130 he layethH7760 his waitH696. {in heart: Heb. in the midst of him} {his wait: or, wait for him}
Shall I not visitH6485 them for these things? saithH5002 the LORDH3068: shall not my soulH5315 be avengedH5358 on such a nationH1471 as this?
For the mountainsH2022 will I take upH5375 a weepingH1065 and wailingH5092, and for the habitationsH4999 of the wildernessH4057 a lamentationH7015, because they are burned upH3341, so that noneH376 can passH5674 through them; neither can men hearH8085 the voiceH6963 of the cattleH4735; both the fowlH5775 of the heavensH8064 and the beastH929 are fledH5074; they are goneH1980. {habitations: or, pastures} {burned up: or, desolate} {both…: Heb. from the fowl even to, etc}
And I will makeH5414 JerusalemH3389 heapsH1530, and a denH4583 of dragonsH8577; and I will makeH5414 the citiesH5892 of JudahH3063 desolateH8077, without an inhabitantH3427. {desolate: Heb. desolation}
Who is the wiseH2450 manH376, that may understandH995 this? and who is he to whom the mouthH6310 of the LORDH3068 hath spokenH1696, that he may declareH5046 it, for what the landH776 perishethH6 and is burned upH3341 like a wildernessH4057, that none passeth throughH5674?
And the LORDH3068 saithH559, Because they have forsakenH5800 my lawH8451 which I setH5414 beforeH6440 them, and have not obeyedH8085 my voiceH6963, neither walkedH1980 therein;
But have walkedH3212 afterH310 the imaginationH8307 of their own heartH3820, and afterH310 BaalimH1168, which their fathersH1 taughtH3925 them: {imagination: or, stubbornness}
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478; Behold, I will feedH398 them, even this peopleH5971, with wormwoodH3939, and give them waterH4325 of gallH7219 to drinkH8248.
I will scatterH6327 them also among the heathenH1471, whom neither they nor their fathersH1 have knownH3045: and I will sendH7971 a swordH2719 afterH310 them, till I have consumedH3615 them.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635, ConsiderH995 ye, and callH7121 for the mourning womenH6969, that they may comeH935; and sendH7971 for cunningH2450 women, that they may comeH935:
And let them make hasteH4116, and take upH5375 a wailingH5092 for us, that our eyesH5869 may run downH3381 with tearsH1832, and our eyelidsH6079 gush outH5140 with watersH4325.
For a voiceH6963 of wailingH5092 is heardH8085 out of ZionH6726, How are we spoiledH7703! we are greatlyH3966 confoundedH954, because we have forsakenH5800 the landH776, because our dwellingsH4908 have cast us outH7993.
Yet hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, O ye womenH802, and let your earH241 receiveH3947 the wordH1697 of his mouthH6310, and teachH3925 your daughtersH1323 wailingH5092, and every oneH802 her neighbourH7468 lamentationH7015.
For deathH4194 is come upH5927 into our windowsH2474, and is enteredH935 into our palacesH759, to cut offH3772 the childrenH5768 from withoutH2351, and the young menH970 from the streetsH7339.
SpeakH1696, Thus saithH5002 the LORDH3068, Even the carcasesH5038 of menH120 shall fallH5307 as dungH1828 upon the openH6440 fieldH7704, and as the handfulH5995 afterH310 the harvestmanH7114, and none shall gatherH622 them.
Thus saithH559 the LORDH3068, Let not the wiseH2450 man gloryH1984 in his wisdomH2451, neither let the mightyH1368 man gloryH1984 in his mightH1369, let not the richH6223 man gloryH1984 in his richesH6239:
But let him that gloriethH1984 gloryH1984 in this, that he understandethH7919 and knowethH3045 me, that I am the LORDH3068 which exerciseH6213 lovingkindnessH2617, judgmentH4941, and righteousnessH6666, in the earthH776: for in these things I delightH2654, saithH5002 the LORDH3068.
Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, that I will punishH6485 all them which are circumcisedH4135 with the uncircumcisedH6190; {punish: Heb. visit upon}
EgyptH4714, and JudahH3063, and EdomH123, and the childrenH1121 of AmmonH5983, and MoabH4124, and all that are in the utmostH7112 cornersH6285, that dwellH3427 in the wildernessH4057: for all these nationsH1471 are uncircumcisedH6189, and all the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 are uncircumcisedH6189 in the heartH3820. {in the utmost…: Heb. cut off into corners, or, having the corners of their hair polled}

And the carcasesH5038 of this peopleH5971 shall be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of the heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776; and none shall fray them awayH2729.
And they shall spreadH7849 them before the sunH8121, and the moonH3394, and all the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, whom they have lovedH157, and whom they have servedH5647, and afterH310 whom they have walkedH1980, and whom they have soughtH1875, and whom they have worshippedH7812: they shall not be gatheredH622, nor be buriedH6912; they shall be for dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127.
They shall dieH4191 of grievousH8463 deathsH4463; they shall not be lamentedH5594; neither shall they be buriedH6912; but they shall be as dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the earthH127: and they shall be consumedH3615 by the swordH2719, and by famineH7458; and their carcasesH5038 shall be meatH3978 for the fowlsH5775 of heavenH8064, and for the beastsH929 of the earthH776.
And the slainH2491 of the LORDH3068 shall be at that dayH3117 from one endH7097 of the earthH776 even unto the other endH7097 of the earthH776: they shall not be lamentedH5594, neither gatheredH622, nor buriedH6912; they shall be dungH1828 uponH6440 the groundH127.
And the carcaseH5038 of JezebelH348 shall be as dungH1828 upon the faceH6440 of the fieldH7704 in the portionH2506 of JezreelH3157; so that they shall not sayH559, This is JezebelH348.
Therefore is the angerH639 of the LORDH3068 kindledH2734 against his peopleH5971, and he hath stretched forthH5186 his handH3027 against them, and hath smittenH5221 them: and the hillsH2022 did trembleH7264, and their carcasesH5038 were tornH5478 in the midstH7130 of the streetsH2351. For all this his angerH639 is not turned awayH7725, but his handH3027 is stretched outH5186 still. {torn: or, as dung}
