11 “Now therefore, speak to the men of Judah and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Behold, I am fashioning a disaster and devising a plan against you. aReturn now every one from his evil way, and make your ways and your doings bgood.” ’ ”

Who has heard such things?
The virgin of Israel has done ba very horrible thing.
a“Ask now among the Gentiles,
Who has heard such things?
