Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068, "For threeh7969 transgressionsh6588 of  aMoabh4124 and for fourh702 I will not  1revokeh7725 its punishment, Becauseh5921 he  bburnedh8313 the bonesh6106 of the kingh4428 of Edomh112b to limeh7875.

"So I will sendh7971 fireh784 upon Moabh4124 And it will consumeh398 the citadelsh759 of  aKeriothh7152; And Moabh4124 will dieh4191 amid  btumulth7588, With  1warh8643 criesh8643 and the soundh6963 of a trumpeth7782.

"I will also cuth3772 offh3772 the  1 ajudgeh8199 from her midsth7130 And slayh2026 allh3605 her  bprincesh8269 with him," saysh559 the LORDh3068.

Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068, "For threeh7969 transgressionsh6588 of  aJudahh3063 and for fourh702 I will not revokeh7725 its punishment, Becauseh5921 they  brejectedh3988a the lawh8451 of the LORDh3068 And have not kepth8104 His statutesh2706; Their  1 cliesh3577 also have ledh8582 them astrayh8582, Those afterh310 whichh834 their  dfathersh1 walkedh1980.

"So I will  asendh7971 fireh784 upon Judahh3063 And it will consumeh398 the citadelsh759 of Jerusalemh3389."

Thush3541 saysh559 the LORDh3068, "For threeh7969 transgressionsh6588 of  aIsraelh3478 and for fourh702 I will not revokeh7725 its punishment, Becauseh5921 they  bsellh4376 the righteoush6662 for moneyh3701 And the needyh34 for a pair of sandalsh5275.

7

"These who  1panth7602b afterh5921 the very dusth6083 of the earthh776 on the headh7218 of the  ahelplessh1800b Also  bturnh5186 asideh5186 the wayh1870 of the humbleh6035; And a  cmanh376 and his fatherh1  2resorth1980 to the same  3girlh5291 In orderh4616 to profaneh2490c My holyh6944 nameh8034.

8

"On garmentsh899b  atakenh2254a as pledgesh2254a they stretchh5186 out besideh681a  beveryh3605 altarh4196, And in the househ1004 of their Godh430 they  cdrinkh8354 the wineh3196 of those who have been finedh6064.

9

"Yet it was I who destroyedh8045 the  aAmoriteh567 beforeh4480h6440 them,  1Though his  bheighth1363 was like the heighth1363 of cedarsh730 And he was strongh2634 as the oaksh437; I even destroyedh8045 his  cfruith6529 aboveh4480h4605 and his rooth8328 belowh4480h8478.

10

"It was I who  abroughth5927 you up from the landh776 of Egypth4714, And I ledh1980 you in the wildernessh4057b  bfortyh705 yearsh8141  1That you might takeh3423 possessionh3423 of the landh776 of the  cAmoriteh567.

11

"Then I  araisedh6965 up someh4480 of your sonsh1121 to be prophetsh5030 And someh4480 of your youngh970 menh970 to be  bNaziritesh5139. Is thish2088 not soh637, O sonsh1121 of Israelh3478?" declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.

12

"But you made the Naziritesh5139 drinkh8248 wineh3196, And you commandedh6680 the prophetsh5030 sayingh559, `You  ashall not prophesyh5012!'

13

"Beholdh2009, I am  1 aweightedh5781 downh5781 beneathh8478 you As a wagonh5699  2is weightedh5781 downh5781 when filledh4392 with sheavesh5995.

14

1 aFlighth4498 will perishh6 from the swifth7031, And the stalwarth2389 will not strengthenh553 his powerh3581b, Norh3808 the  bmightyh1368 manh1368 saveh4422 his  2lifeh5315.

15

"He who  agraspsh8610 the bowh7198 will not standh5975 his ground, The swifth7031 of footh7272 will not escapeh4422, Norh3808 will he who ridesh7392 the  bhorseh5483b saveh4422 his  1lifeh5315.

16

"Even the  1bravesth533h3820 among the warriorsh1368 will  afleeh5127 nakedh6174 in that dayh3117," declaresh5002 the LORDh3068.
