6 ^aThose who have turned back from following the Lord,
And ^bhave not sought the Lord, nor inquired of Him.” ‡

7 ^aBe silent in the presence of the Lord God;
^bFor the day of the Lord is at hand,
For ^cthe Lord has prepared a sacrifice;
He has¹ invited His guests. ‡

9 In the same day I will punish
All those who ^aleap over the threshold,
Who fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit. ‡

10 “And there shall be on that day,” says the Lord,
“The sound of a mournful cry from ^athe Fish Gate,
A wailing from the Second Quarter,
And a loud crashing from the hills. ‡
