"Woeto you, Chorazin!Woeto you, Bethsaida!For ifthe miracleshad been performedin Tyreand Sidonwhichoccurredin you, they would have repentedlong ago,sittingin sackclothand ashes.
Now in the eleventhyear,on the firstof the month,the wordof the LORDcameto me saying,
by meansof the hypocrisyof liarssearedin their ownconscienceas with a branding iron,
To grantthose who mourn[in] Zion,Givingthem a garlandinsteadof ashes,The oilof gladnessinsteadof mourning,The mantleof praiseinsteadof a spiritof fainting.So they will be calledoaksof righteousness,The plantingof the LORD,that He may be glorified.
ThereforeI retract,And I repentin dustand ashes."
"And I will grant[authority] to my twowitnesses,and they will prophesyfor twelvehundredand sixtydays,clothedin sackcloth."
So I gavemy attentionto the LordGodto seek[Him by] prayerand supplications,with fasting,sackclothand ashes.
Thussaysthe LORD,"For threetransgressionsof Tyreand for fourI will not revokeits [punishment], Becausethey deliveredup an entirepopulationto EdomAnd did not remember[the] covenantof brotherhood.
