for they forsook me, and made sacrifice to alien gods, and stirred me to ire in all the works of their hands; and mine indignation shall be kindled in this place, and shall not be quenched.
and Lord, thou hast forgiven to a folk, thou hast forgiven to a folk. Whether thou art glorified? thou hast made far from thee all the ends of [the] earth.
For the Lord God saith these things, That though I send in my four worst dooms, sword, and hunger, and evil beasts, and pestilence, into Jeru-salem, that I slay of it man and beast,
when I shall send into them the worst arrows of hunger, that shall bear death; and which I shall send, that I lose you. And I shall gather hunger [up] on you, and I shall all-break in you the firmness of bread.
Slay ye till to death, an eld [or old] man, a young man, and a virgin, a little child, and women; but slay ye not any man, on whom ye see Tau; and begin ye at my saintuary. There-fore they began at the elder men, that were before the face of the house.
That if thou wilt not hear the voice of thy Lord God, that thou keep and do all his behests, and ceremonies, which I command to thee today, all these cursings shall come upon thee, and shall take thee.
I shall full-fill mine arrows with blood, and my sword shall devour fleshes of the blood of them that be slain, and of the captivity, of the heads of enemies made naked.
