The Lord turned, and looked at Kefa. Then Kefa remembered the Lord's word, how he said to him, *Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.*
that you may remember, and be confounded, and never open your mouth any more, because of your shame, when I have forgiven you all that you have done, says the Lord GOD.
*How can I give you up, Efrayim? How can I hand you over, Yisra'el? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Tzevoyim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
Therefore remember that once you, the Gentiles in the flesh, who are called *uncircumcision* by that which is called *circumcision,* (in the flesh, made by hands);
Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your menorah out of its place, unless you repent.
