⁹ Thou dost rule them with a sceptre of iron, As a vessel of a potter Thou dost crush them.'

¹⁰ `And thou hast broken the bottle before the eyes of the men who are going with thee,

¹¹ and hast said unto them: Thus said Jehovah of Hosts, Thus do I break this people and this city, as one breaketh the potter's vessel, that is not able to be repaired again, and in Tophet they bury -- without place to bury;

²⁷ and he shall rule them with a rod of iron -- as the vessels of the potter they shall be broken -- as I also have received from my Father;

²¹ for if God the natural branches did not spare -- lest perhaps He also shall not spare thee.

³ Is wood taken from it to use for work? Do they take of it a pin to hang any vessel on it?

⁴ Lo, to the fire it hath been given for fuel, Its two ends hath the fire eaten, And its midst hath been scorched! Is it profitable for work?

⁵ Lo, in its being perfect it is not used for work, How much less, when fire hath eaten of it, And it is scorched, Hath it been used yet for work?

⁶ Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: As the vine-tree among trees of the forest, That I have given to the fire for fuel, So I have given the inhabitants of Jerusalem.

⁷ And I have set My face against them, From the fire they have gone forth, And the fire doth consume them, And ye have known that I `am' Jehovah, In My setting My face against them.

⁸ And I have made the land a desolation, Because they have committed a trespass, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah!'

¹⁴ I, Jehovah, hath spoken, It hath come, and I have done `it', I do not free, nor do I spare, nor do I repent, According to thy ways, and according to thine acts, they have judged thee, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.'

² forty days being tempted by the Devil, and he did not eat anything in those days, and they having been ended, he afterward hungered,

³² He who indeed His own Son did not spare, but for us all did deliver him up, how shall He not also with him the all things grant to us?

¹⁰ And I also, Mine eye doth not pity, nor do I spare; their way on their own head I have put.'

¹⁸ And I also deal in fury, Mine eye doth not pity, nor do I spare, and they have cried in Mine ears -- a loud voice -- and I do not hear them.'

²² And it casteth at him, and doth not spare, From its hand he diligently fleeth.

¹² I have been forgotten as dead out of mind, I have been as a perishing vessel.

¹¹ In the withering of its branch it is broken off, Women are coming in setting it on fire, For it `is' not a people of understanding, Therefore pity it not doth its Maker, And its Former doth not favour it.

¹⁴ Lo, they have been as stubble! Fire hath burned them, They deliver not themselves from the power of the flame, There is not a coal to warm them, a light to sit before it.
