2: If [G1437] you should not [G3361] hearken , and [G2532] if [G1437] you should not [G3361] put it [G5087] into [G1519] the [G3588] your heart [G2588][G1473], the [G3588] to give [G1325] glory [G1391] [to the [G3588] name [G3686] of me [G1473], says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841], then [G2532] I will send [G1821] upon [G1909] you [G1473] the [G3588] curse [G2671], and [G2532] I will accurse the [G3588] your blessing [G2129][G1473] -- even [G2532] I will curse [G2672] it [G1473], and [G2532] it will not be [G3756] among [G1722] you [G1473], for [G3754] you [G1473] put [it] not [G3756][G5087] to [G1519] the [G3588] your heart [G2588][G1473].
3: look [G2400], I [G1473] separate to you [G1473] the [G3588] shoulder [G5606], and [G2532] I will disperse [G4650] [dung of the] large intestine upon [G1909] the [G3588] your faces [G4383][G1473], [dung of the] large intestine of your holiday [feasts [G1859][G1473]; and [G2532] I will take [G2983] you [away [G1473] at [G1519] the [G3588] same [time] [G1473].
4: And [G2532] you will realize [G1921] that [G1360] I [G1473] sent out [G1821] to [G4314] you [G1473] the [G3588] this commandment [G1785][G3778], the [G3588] to be the [G3588] my covenant [G1242][G1473] with [G4314] the [G3588] Levites, says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841].
5: the [G3588] My covenant [G1242][G1473] was with [G3326] him [G1473], the [G3588] [one] of life [G2222] and [G2532] of the [G3588] peace [G1515]; and [G2532] I gave [G1325] to him [G1473] fear [G5401] to fear [G5399] me [G1473], and [G2532] from presence [G4383] of name [G3686] of me [G1473] to put him in readiness [G4724][G1473].
6: law [G3551] of truth was in [G1722] the [G3588] mouth [G4750] of him [G1473], and [G2532] injustice was not [G3756] found [G2147] in [G1722] his lips [G5491][G1473]. In [G1722] peace [G1515] he straightened out [G2720] to go [G4198] with [G3326] me [G1473]; and [G2532] many [G4183] he turned [G1994] from iniquity .
7: For [G3754] lips [G5491] of priests [G2409] will guard [G5442] knowledge [G1108], and [G2532] law [G3551] they will seek [G1567] from [G1537] his mouth [G4750][G1473]; for [G1360] a word-conveyer (messenger) ' [of the] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841] he is .
8: But you [G1473][G1161] turned aside [G1578] from [G1537] the [G3588] way [G3598], and [G2532] you weakened many [G4183] in [G1722] [following the] law [G3551]; you corrupted [G1311] the [G3588] covenant [G1242] of the [G3588] Levi, says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841].
9: And [G2532] I [G1473] have given [G1325] you [over] [G1473] as ones being treated with contempt [G1847], and [G2532] ones being disregarded [G3935] among [G1519] all [G3956] the [G3588] tradition-peoples (ethnics) '[G1484], because you [G1473] guarded not [G3756][G5442] the [G3588] my ways [G3598][G1473], but you took [G2983] persons [G4383] in [G1722] law [G3551].
10: Is there not [G3780] father [G3962] one [G1520] of all [G3956] of you [G1473]? Did not [G3780] God '[G2316] one [G1520] create [G2936] you [G1473]? For what reason [G5100][G3754] did you abandoned [G1459] each [G1538] the [G3588] brother of him [G1473], the [G3588] to profane the [G3588] covenant [G1242] of the [G3588] your fathers [G3962][G1473]?
11: Judah abandoned [G1459], and [G2532] an abomination took place [G1096] in [G1722] the [G3588] Israel and [G2532] in [G1722] Jerusalem; for [G1360] Judah profaned the [G3588] holy [things] of Boss '[G2962] in [G1722] which [G3739] he loved , and [G2532] applied unto [G1519] alien gods '[G2316].
12: BOSS will utterly destroy [G1842][G2962] the [G3588] man the [G3588] doing [G4160] these [things] [G3778], until [G2193] whenever he should be humbled [G5013] from out of [G1537] tents [G4638] of Jacob, and [G2532] from out of [G1537] ones bringing [G4317] a sacrifice [G2378] to the [G3588] Boss '[G2962] almighty [G3841].
13: And [G2532] these [things] [G3778] which [G3739] I detested [G3404] you did [G4160]. You covered [G2572] in tears [G1144] the [G3588] altar [G2379] [of the] Boss '[G2962] in [G1722] weeping [G2805] and [G2532] moaning [G4726] because of [G1537] troubles [G2873], yet [G2089] [thinking it] worthy to look [G1914] upon [G1519] [your] sacrifice [G2378], or [G2228] to take [G2983] as acceptable [G1184] from out of [G1537] the [G3588] your hands [G5495][G1473].
14: And [G2532] you said [G2036], For [G1752] what [reason [G5100]? In that [G3754] Boss '[G2962] testified [G1263] between you [G1473] and [G2532] between wife [G1135] of your youth [G3503][G1473], whom [G3739] you abandoned [G1459]. And [G2532] she [G1473] [is] your partner [G2844][G1473], and [G2532] wife [G1135] of your covenant [G1242][G1473].
15: But [G2532] did he not [G3756] good [G2570] do [G4160], even [G2532] a vestige of his wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151][G1473]? And [G2532] you said [G2036], What [G5100] other than [G2228] a seed [does [G4690] God seek [G2212] the [G3588][G2316]? But [G2532] guard [G5442] in [G1722] the [G3588] your wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151][G1473], and [G2532] wife [G1135] of your youth [G3503] do not [G3361] abandon [G1459]!
16: But if [G1437] by detesting [G3404], you should send [her] forth [G1821], says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] Israel, then [G2532] will cover [G2572] impiety over [G1909] the [G3588] your thoughts [G1473], says [G3004] Boss '[G2962] the [G3588] God '[G2316] almighty [G3841]. And [G2532] [keep] guard [G5442] in [G1722] the [G3588] your wind/spirit/breathing '[G4151][G1473], and [G2532] in no way should you abandon [them [G1459],
17: O ones the [G3588] provoking [G3947] the [G3588] Boss '[G2962] with [G1722] the [G3588] your words [G3056][G1473]. And [G2532] you said [G2036], in [G1722] what [G5100] We provoked [G3947] him [G1473]? In [G1722] the [G3588] your saying [G3004][G1473], Every one [G3956] doing [G4160] wicked [G4190] [is] good [G2570] before [G1799] Boss '[G2962], and [G2532] in [G1722] them [G1473] he [G1473] thinks well of [G2106]; and [G2532], Where [G4226] is the [G3588] God '[G2316] of the [G3588] righteousness [G1343]?
