because they have forsaken Me and have burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands; and My wrath shall be kindled against this place, and shall not be quenched.
because they have forsaken Me and have burned incense to other gods so as to provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands; and My wrath shall be poured out on this place, and it shall not be put out.
For, behold, Jehovah comes from His place to visit his iniquity on one dwelling on the earth. On him the earth shall also reveal her blood, and not shall still cover over her being slain.
The sons gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes to the queen of the heavens, and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me.
So the Lord Jehovah says this: Behold, My anger and My fury will be poured out on this place, on man and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground. And it will burn and will not be put out.
By your blood which you have poured out, you are guilty; and by your idols which you have made, you are defiled. And your days are brought near, and you have come to your years. Therefore, I have made you a reproach to the nations, and a mocking to all the lands.
And as righteous men, they shall judge them with the judgment of adulteresses, and the judgment of women who pour out blood, because they are adulteresses, and blood is in their hands.
And My anger shall be spent, and I will make My fury rest on them, and I will be eased. And they shall know that I, Jehovah, have spoken in My zeal, in My completing My fury among them.
And I will bring distress to men, and they shall walk like the blind men, because they have sinned against Jehovah. And their blood shall be poured out like dust, and their flesh like dung.
So then do not judge anything before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both shed light on the hidden things of darkness and will reveal the purposes of the hearts. And then praise will be to each one from God.
and saying, Woe! Woe to the great city having been clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and having been adorned with gold and precious stone, and pearls!
