⁵ Thus says the Lord Yahweh: An evil, an only evil; behold, it comes.

¹² therefore thus says Yahweh, the God of Israel, Behold, I bring such evil on Jerusalem and Judah, that whoever hears of it, both his ears shall tingle.

¹³ I will stretch over Jerusalem the line of Samaria, and the plummet of the house of Ahab; and I will wipe Jerusalem as a man wipes a dish, wiping it and turning it upside down.

⁹ I will do in you that which I have not done, and whereunto I will not do any more the like, because of all your abominations.

⁹ What do you plot against Yahweh? He will make a full end. Affliction won't rise up the second time.

¹² He has confirmed his words, which he spoke against us, and against our judges who judged us, by bringing on us a great evil; for under the whole sky has not been done as has been done on Jerusalem.

² "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins."

²¹ for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.
