²⁶ As wicked He hath stricken them, In the place of beholders.

³⁰ and Jehovah saveth Israel in that day out of the hand of the Egyptians, and Israel seeth the Egyptians dead on the sea-shore,

⁹ and weep over her, and smite themselves for her, shall the kings of the earth, who with her did commit whoredom and did revel, when they may see the smoke of her burning,

¹⁰ from afar having stood because of the fear of her torment, saying, Wo, wo, the great city! Babylon, the strong city! because in one hour did come thy judgment.

²⁴ of certain men the sins are manifest beforehand, leading before to judgment, and certain also they follow after;

²⁰ Those sinning, reprove before all, that the others also may have fear;

²⁴ And they have gone forth, And looked on the carcases of the men Who are transgressing against me, For their worm dieth not, And their fire is not quenched, And they have been an abhorrence to all flesh!

¹⁰ The righteous rejoiceth that he hath seen vengeance, His steps he washeth in the blood of the wicked.

¹¹ And man saith: `Surely fruit `is' for the righteous: Surely there is a God judging in the earth!'

¹¹ thus said Jehovah, Lo, I am raising up against thee evil, out of thy house, and have taken thy wives before thine eyes, and given to thy neighbour, and he hath lain with thy wives before the eyes of this sun;

¹² for thou hast done `it' in secret, and I do this thing before all Israel, and before the sun.'

²¹ and all the men of his city have stoned him with stones, and he hath died, and thou hast put away the evil out of thy midst, and all Israel do hear and fear.

⁹ `But thou dost surely kill him; thy hand is on him, in the first place, to put him to death, and the hand of all the people last;

¹⁰ and thou hast stoned him with stones, and he hath died, for he hath sought to drive thee away from Jehovah thy God, who is bringing thee out of the land of Egypt, out of a house of servants;

¹¹ and all Israel do hear and fear, and add not to do like this evil thing in thy midst.

²⁰ `Be glad over her, O heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets, because God did judge your judgment of her!'
