充以呼號擾攘之邑、歡樂之城、爾之見殺者、非戮於鋒刃、非亡於戰陳、

為我人民的土地、那長着荊棘和蒺藜的！為了歡躍的都市一切娛樂的院落哀哭哦！

難道這是你們歡躍之城，她的起源溯自古日，她的腳力帶她到遠方去寄居的麼？

我若出去到田間，就見有那些被刀劍刺殺的人！我若進入城裏，就見有那些因饑荒而生病的人！連神言人帶祭司在這地都忙於他們的生意經，也不知不覺！」』

永恆主啊，看吧！鑒察吧！看你向誰這樣加罰過！婦人哪能喫自己所生育的，喫自己撫弄的嬰孩呢？祭司和神言人哪可在主的聖所中被殺戮呢？

『因此永恆主論亞述王是這樣說的：「他不會來到這城，也不會射箭到這裏；不會拿盾牌臨到城前，也不會倒土堆攻城。

被刀刺死的比被饑荒餓死的還好，因為前者雖被刺傷，還可以喫田間的出產。慈心的婦人，親手煮自己生的孩子；當我眾民遭破毁時，親生孩子做了自己的食品。

當那日子、主萬軍之永恆主叫人哀哭號咷，頭上光禿，腰束麻布；但是你看，人倒歡躍喜樂，宰牛殺羊，喫肉喝酒，說：『只管喫喝吧！因為明天我們就死了！』

有禍啊那些擅自把災禍之日推遠，反把強暴之座位挪近的！有禍啊那些躺在象牙床上，在床榻上伸着懶腰，喫羣中現挑的羊羔，和棚間之肥牛犢的！那些應琵琶聲嘁嘁喳喳胡唱，還自己編製各種詩歌要媲美大衛的！那些以大碗喝酒，用上好的油抹身，卻不為約瑟的破敗而憂傷成病的！

永恆主的使者就出來，在亞述營中擊殺了十八萬五千人；第二天早晨、人清早起來，只見都是死屍。

四月九日、城裏大鬧饑荒，甚至當地的人民都沒有糧食。

『永恆主這麼說：住在這城裏的、必因刀劍、饑荒、瘟疫而死；但出去歸降迦勒底人的、必得活着；必掠得自己的性命而活着。
