“ Haven’t you brought this on yourself, in that you have forsaken Yahweh your God, when he led you by the way?

Who is wise enough to understand this? Who is he to whom the mouth of Yahweh has spoken, that he may declare it? Why has the land perished and burned up like a wilderness, so that no one passes through?Yahweh says,“ Because they have forsaken my law which I set before them, and have not obeyed my voice, neither walked therein,but have walked after the stubbornness of their own heart, and after the Baals, which their fathers taught them.”

The fierce anger of Yahweh will not return until he has accomplished, and until he has performed the intentions of his heart. In the latter days you will understand it.”

For I will be to Ephraim like a lion, and like a young lion to the house of Judah. I myself will tear in pieces and go away. I will carry off, and there will be no one to deliver.

though these three men were in it, as I live,” says the Lord Yahweh,“ they would deliver neither sons nor daughters. They only would be delivered, but the land would be desolate.“ Or if I bring a sword on that land, and say,‘ Sword, go through the land; so that I cut off from it man and animal;’though these three men were in it, as I live,” says the Lord Yahweh,“ they would deliver neither sons nor daughters, but they only would be delivered themselves.“ Or if I send a pestilence into that land, and pour out my wrath on it in blood, to cut off from it man and animal;though Noah, Daniel, and Job, were in it, as I live,” says the Lord Yahweh,“ they would deliver neither son nor daughter; they would deliver only their own souls by their righteousness.”For the Lord Yahweh says:“ How much more when I send my four severe judgments on Jerusalem, the sword, the famine, the evil animals, and the pestilence, to cut off from it man and animal!

Where is the den of the lions, and the feeding place of the young lions, where the lion and the lioness walked, the lion’s cubs, and no one made them afraid?The lion tore in pieces enough for his cubs, and strangled for his lionesses, and filled his caves with the kill, and his dens with prey.

Yet she multiplied her prostitution, remembering the days of her youth, in which she had played the prostitute in the land of Egypt.

“ The first was like a lion, and had eagle’s wings. I watched until its wings were plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand on two feet as a man. A man’s heart was given to it.
