1: O how [G4459] will be darkened the [G3588] gold], [and [G5553] changed the [G3588] silver the [G3588] good ; were discharged [G1632] stones [G3037] pure ' at [G1909] top of all [G3956] streets [G1841],
2: [even] the [G3588] sons [G5207] of Zion the [G3588] esteemed [G5093] being encouraged [G1869] by [G1722] gold [G5553], O how [G4459] they are considered [G3049] as [G1519] receptacles earthenware [G3749], works [G2041] of hands [G5495] of potter [G2763].
3: And [G2532] indeed [G1065], dragons [G1404] stripped [G1562] breasts [G3149], they nursed [G2337] their cubs [G1473]; daughters [G2364] of my people [G2992][G1473] [were] for [G1519] irretrievability as [G5613] a sparrow [G4765] in [G1722] wilderness [G2048].
4: cleaves [G2853] the [G3588] tongue [G1100] of one nursing [G2337] to [G4314] the [G3588] its throat [G1473] in [G1722] thirst [G1373]. Infants [G3516] ask for bread , the [G3588] [one] snapping [it there not [G3756] is for them [G1473].
5: the [ones] [G3588] eating [G2068] the [G3588] delicacies [G5172] were removed in [G1722] the [G3588] streets [G1841]. the [G3588] [ones] having been suckled in [G1909] scarlet [G2848] were embracing dung [G2874].
6: And [G2532] was magnified [G3170] lawlessness of daughter [G2364] of my people [G2992][G1473] over [G5228] lawlessness of Sodom, the [place] the [G3588] being eradicated [G2690] as [with [G5618] promptness [G4710], and [G2532] they did not [G3756] toil in [G1722] her [G1473] hands [G5495].
7: were clean Her Nazarites [G1473]; more than [G5228] snow [G5510] they radiated [G2989]; more than [G5228] milk [G1051] they were purified [G4448]. [were] above [G5228] stone [G3037] of sapphire [G4552] the [G3588]ir broken [pieces [G1473],
8: darkened above [G5228] lamp black the [G3588]ir appearance [G1491][G1473], they are not [G3756] recognized [G1921] in [G1722] the [G3588] streets [G1841][G1473]; was fixed [G4078] their skin [G1192][G1473] against [G1909] the [G3588]ir bones [G3747][G1473]; they are dried up [G3583], they were [G1096] as [G5618] wood [G3586].
9: Better [G2570] were the [G3588] [ones] slain by broadsword [G4501] than [G2228] the [G3588] [ones] slain by hunger [G3042]; they went [G4198] being pierced [G1574] by [want of produce [G1081] of fields .
10: hands [G5495] women [G1135] of pitying [G3629] boiled the [G3588]ir children [G3813][G1473]; they became [G1096] for [G1519] food [G1035] to them [G1473] in [G1722] the [G3588] destruction [G4938] of the [G3588] daughter [G2364] of the [G3588] my people [G2992][G1473].
11: BOSS completed [G4931][G2962] his rage [G2372][G1473]; he poured out [G1632] rage [G2372] of his anger [G3709][G1473], and [G2532] lit a fire [G4442] in [G1722] Zion, and [G2532] it devoured [G2719] the [G3588] her foundations [G2310][G1473].
12: believed not [G3756][G4100] kings of land '[G1093], all [G3956] the [G3588] [ones] dwelling [G2730], the [G3588] [ones] living [G3611], that [G3754] will enter [G1525] an enemy [G2190] and [G2532] one afflicting through [G1223] the [G3588] gates [G4439] of Jerusalem,
13: because of [G1537] sins of her prophets [G4396][G1473], [and] iniquities of her priests [G2409][G1473], the [G3588] [ones] pouring out [G1632] blood just [G1342] in [G1722] her midst [G3319][G1473].
14: were shaken [G4531] the [G3588] Her watchmen [G1473] in [G1722] the [G3588] streets [G1841]; they were tainted [G3435] with [G1722] blood in [G1722] the [G3588] not [G3361] being able [G1410] their [G1473]; they touched their garments [with it [G1742][G1473].
15: Separate from unclean ! Call [G2564] them [G1473]! Separate , separate , do not [G3361] touch ! for [G3754] they were lit , and [G2532] indeed [G1065], they were shaken [G4531]. Say [G2036] among [G1722] the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484]! In no way should they proceed [G4369] the [G3588] to sojourn [there [G3939].
16: person [G4383] of Boss '[G2962] was their portion [G3310][G1473]; he will not [G3756] proceed [G4369] to look upon [G1914] them [G1473]. person [G4383] of priests [G2409] they did not [G3756] receive [G2983]; old men [G4246] they did not [G3756] show compassion on [G1653].
17: Yet [G2089] [in] our being [G1473], failed [G1587] the [G3588] eyes [G3788] of us [G1473]. for [G1519] our help [G1473] [was] in vain [G3152] watching Our [G1473]. We watched unto [G1519] an tradition-people (ethnic) '[G1484] not [G3756] delivering [G4982].
18: They hunted [G2340] our small ones [G3397][G1473] the [G3588] to not [G3361] go [G4198] into [G1722] the [G3588] our squares [G4113][G1473]. approached [G1448] the [G3588] Our time [G2540][G1473]; were fulfilled [G4137] the [G3588] our days [G2250][G1473]; [is] at hand [G3918] the [G3588] our end [G4009][G1473].
19: nimble were [G1096] the [G3588] [ones] pursuing [G1377] us [G1473], more than [G5228] eagles of raised-place-above (sky) '[G3772]. Upon [G1909] the [G3588] raised-places (mountains) '[G3735] they perched ; in [G1722] a wilderness [G2048] they lie in wait [G1748] for us [G1473].
20: wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151] of our face [G4383][G1473], Anointed "'[G5547], Boss '[G2962] was seized [G4815] in [G1722] the [G3588] our corruptions [G1312][G1473], of whom [G3739] we said [G2036], In [G1722] the [G3588] his shadow [G4639][G1473] we will live [G2198] among [G1722] the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484].
21: Rejoice [G5463] and [G2532] be glad [G2165] O daughter [G2364] of Edom! the [G3588] [one] dwelling [G2730] upon [G1909] the [G3588] land '[G1093] of Uz! And [G2532] indeed [G1065] unto [G1909] you [G1473] will go through [G1330] the [G3588] cup [G4221] of Boss '[G2962]. You will be intoxicated [G3184] and [G2532] will pour forth .
22: is vanished [G1587] the [G3588] Your lawlessness [G1473], O daughter [G2364] of Zion. He will not [G3756] proceed [G4369] unto [G1909] the [G3588] resettling you [G1473]. He visited [G1980] your lawlessness [G1473], O daughter [G2364] of Edom; he revealed concerning [G1909] the [G3588] your acts of impiety [G1473].
