Places for planting a vineyard;
I will pour down her stones into the valley,
And I will buncover her foundations.
Places for planting a vineyard;
I will pour down her stones into the valley,
And I will buncover her foundations.
7 All her carved images shall be beaten to pieces,
And all her apay as a harlot shall be burned with the fire;
All her idols I will lay desolate,
For she gathered it from the pay of a harlot,
And they shall return to the bpay of a harlot.”
And all her apay as a harlot shall be burned with the fire;
All her idols I will lay desolate,
For she gathered it from the pay of a harlot,
And they shall return to the bpay of a harlot.”
Mourning for Israel and Judah
8 Therefore I will wail and howl,
I will go stripped and naked;
aI will make a wailing like the jackals
And a mourning like the ostriches,
I will go stripped and naked;
aI will make a wailing like the jackals
And a mourning like the ostriches,
9 For her wounds are incurable.
For ait has come to Judah;
It has come to the gate of My people—
To Jerusalem.
For ait has come to Judah;
It has come to the gate of My people—
To Jerusalem.
11 Pass by in naked shame, you inhabitant of1 Shaphir;
The inhabitant of1 Zaanan does not go out.
Beth Ezel mourns;
Its place to stand is taken away from you.
The inhabitant of1 Zaanan does not go out.
Beth Ezel mourns;
Its place to stand is taken away from you.
