Thus saith YY , Where is the bill of your mother's divorcement, whom I have put away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities have ye sold yourselves, and for your transgressions is your mother put away.
Hear, O earth: behold, I will bring evil upon this people, even the fruit of their thoughts, because they have not hearkened unto my words, nor to my Torah, but rejected it.
Did Hizkiyah-yahu king of Yhudah and all Yhudah put him at all to death? did he not fear YY , and besought YY , and YY repented him of the evil which he had pronounced against them? Thus might we procure great evil against our souls.
And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth YY our Elohim all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange elohim in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not your's.
And the people to whom they prophesy shall be cast out in the streets of Yerushalayim because of the famine and the sword; and they shall have none to bury them, them, their wives, nor their sons, nor their daughters: for I will pour their wickedness upon them.
