We have heard songs from the wing of the earth, Honor to the Righteous One. But I said, Leanness to me! Leanness to me! Woe to me! Traitors betray, even with treachery; traitors betray!
Yea, you did not hear; yea, you did not know; yea, from then your ear was not opened; for I know that betraying you will betray and tramsgresing from the womb; it was called to you.
Righteous are You, O Jehovah, when I might contend with You, yet let me speak with You of Your judgments. Why does the way of the wicked ones prosper? Why are all at ease, those who act deceitfully, with deceit.
And Jehovah said to me, Go again, love a woman loved by a friend, yet an adulteress, according to the love of Jehovah toward the sons of Israel, who turn to other gods, and love raisin cakes of grapes.
Judah has acted deceitfully, and has done an abomination in Israel and in Jerusalem; for Judah has polluted the holy place of Jehovah, which He loves and has married a daughter of a foreign god.
