bAnd while drunken like drunkards,
cThey shall be devoured like stubble fully dried.
“Though they are1 safe, and likewise many,
Yet in this manner they will be acut down
When he passes through.
Though I have afflicted you,
I will afflict you no more;
1“Your name shall be perpetuated no longer.
Out of the house of your gods
I will cut off the carved image and the molded image.
I will dig your agrave,
For you are bvile.”
The afeet of him who brings good tidings,
Who proclaims peace!
O Judah, keep your appointed feasts,
Perform your vows.
For the1 wicked one shall no more pass through you;
He is butterly cut off.
