13 Behold|strong="H2009", therefore|strong="H5921", I|strong="H2009" have|strong="H1961" smitten|strong="H5221" my|strong="H5921" hand|strong="H3709" at|strong="H5921" thy|strong="H6213" dishonest|strong="H1215" gain|strong="H1215" which|strong="H1818" thou|strong="H6213" hast made|strong="H6213", and|strong="H1818" at|strong="H5921" thy|strong="H6213" blood|strong="H1818" which|strong="H1818" hath been|strong="H1961" in|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5921" midst|strong="H8432" of|strong="H8432" thee|strong="H6213".
14 Can|strong="H6213" thy|strong="H3068" heart|strong="H3820" endure|strong="H5975", or|strong="H3117" can|strong="H6213" thy|strong="H3068" hands|strong="H3027" be|strong="H3027" strong|strong="H2388", in|strong="H3068" the|strong="H6213" days|strong="H3117" that|strong="H3117" I|strong="H3117" shall|strong="H3068" deal|strong="H6213" with|strong="H3068" thee|strong="H6213"? I|strong="H3117", Jehovah|strong="H3068", have|strong="H3068" spoken|strong="H1696" it|strong="H6213", and|strong="H3068" will|strong="H3068" do|strong="H6213" it|strong="H6213".
15 And|strong="H1471" I|strong="H4480" will|strong="H1471" scatter|strong="H2219" thee among|strong="H4480" the|strong="H4480" nations|strong="H1471", and|strong="H1471" disperse|strong="H2219" thee through|strong="H4480" the|strong="H4480" countries; and|strong="H1471" I|strong="H4480" will|strong="H1471" consume|strong="H8552" thy|strong="H1471" filthiness|strong="H2932" out|strong="H4480" of|strong="H4480" thee.
16 And|strong="H3068" thou|strong="H3045" shalt be|strong="H3068" profaned|strong="H2490" in|strong="H3068" thyself, in|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3588" sight|strong="H5869" of|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3588" nations|strong="H1471"; and|strong="H3068" thou|strong="H3045" shalt know|strong="H3045" that|strong="H3588" I|strong="H3588" am|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068".
17 And|strong="H3068" the|strong="H3068" word|strong="H1697" of|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068" came|strong="H1961" unto|strong="H3068" me|strong="H1697", saying|strong="H1697",

19 Therefore|strong="H3651" thus|strong="H3541" saith the|strong="H3605" Lord|strong="H3069" Jehovah|strong="H3068": Because|strong="H3282" ye are|strong="H1961" all|strong="H3605" become|strong="H1961" dross|strong="H5509", therefore|strong="H3651", behold|strong="H2005", I|strong="H2005" will|strong="H1961" gather|strong="H6908" you|strong="H3605" into|strong="H8432" the|strong="H3605" midst|strong="H8432" of|strong="H8432" Jerusalem|strong="H3389".

27 Her|strong="H7130" princes|strong="H8269" in|strong="H5315" the|strong="H7130" midst|strong="H7130" thereof|strong="H7130" are|strong="H8269" like|strong="H8210" wolves|strong="H2061" ravening|strong="H2963" the|strong="H7130" prey|strong="H2964", to|strong="H4616" shed|strong="H8210" blood|strong="H1818", and to|strong="H4616" destroy|strong="H2963" souls|strong="H5315", that|strong="H5315" they|strong="H5315" may|strong="H5315" get|strong="H1214" dishonest|strong="H1215" gain|strong="H1215".
28 And|strong="H3068" her|strong="H2902" prophets|strong="H5030" have|strong="H3068" daubed|strong="H2902" for|strong="H3068" them|strong="H3068" with|strong="H3068" untempered|strong="H8602" mortar, seeing|strong="H2374" false|strong="H7723" visions|strong="H7723", and|strong="H3068" divining|strong="H7080" lies|strong="H3577" unto|strong="H1696" them|strong="H3068", saying|strong="H1696", Thus|strong="H3541" saith|strong="H1696" the|strong="H3069" Lord|strong="H3068" Jehovah|strong="H3068", when|strong="H1696" Jehovah|strong="H3068" hath|strong="H3068" not|strong="H3808" spoken|strong="H1696".
29 The|strong="H3808" people|strong="H5971" of|strong="H5971" the|strong="H3808" land have|strong="H5971" used oppression|strong="H6233", and|strong="H4941" exercised|strong="H1497" robbery|strong="H1498"; yea, they|strong="H3808" have|strong="H5971" vexed|strong="H3238" the|strong="H3808" poor|strong="H6041" and|strong="H4941" needy|strong="H6041", and|strong="H4941" have|strong="H5971" oppressed|strong="H6231" the|strong="H3808" sojourner|strong="H1616" wrongfully|strong="H4941".
30 And|strong="H6440" I|strong="H3808" sought|strong="H1245" for|strong="H1157" a|strong="H3068" man|strong="H6440" among|strong="H4672" them|strong="H1992", that|strong="H3808" should build|strong="H1443" up|strong="H5975" the|strong="H6440" wall|strong="H1447", and|strong="H6440" stand|strong="H5975" in|strong="H4672" the|strong="H6440" gap|strong="H6556" before|strong="H6440" me|strong="H6440" for|strong="H1157" the|strong="H6440" land|strong="H6440", that|strong="H3808" I|strong="H3808" should not|strong="H3808" destroy|strong="H7843" it|strong="H6440"; but|strong="H3808" I|strong="H3808" found|strong="H4672" none|strong="H3808".
31 Therefore|strong="H5921" have|strong="H5414" I|strong="H5414" poured|strong="H8210" out|strong="H8210" mine|strong="H5414" indignation|strong="H2195" upon|strong="H5921" them|strong="H5414"; I|strong="H5414" have|strong="H5414" consumed|strong="H3615" them|strong="H5414" with|strong="H5921" the|strong="H5002" fire of|strong="H7218" my|strong="H5414" wrath|strong="H5678": their|strong="H5414" own way|strong="H1870" have|strong="H5414" I|strong="H5414" brought|strong="H5414" upon|strong="H5921" their|strong="H5414" heads|strong="H7218", saith|strong="H5002" the|strong="H5002" Lord|strong="H3069" Jehovah|strong="H3068".
