inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves :

And they
shall
spread them before
the
sun, and the
moon, and all the host of heaven
, whom
they have loved, and whom
they have served, and after
whom
they have walked, and whom
they have sought, and whom
they have worshipped:
they shall
not be
gathered, nor be
buried ;
they shall
be
for dung upon
the face of the earth
.

that

remain
in all the places whither I have driven them, saith

thou hast
said
unto them :
Thus said
Jehovah,
Do
they fall, and not rise

and
heard

they spake
not aright:

horse rusheth
into the
battle.
I have
given
attention
, yea,
I

the
stork in the heaven

the time of their coming ;

not the judgment of the
LORD
.
Even
a
stork in the heavens

not known
the judgment of Jehovah

wisdom is
in
them
?

kicked,
And the
wisdom of
what

I give their wives unto
others, and
their fields to them
that
shall
inherit
them:

one
from the least even unto the greatest is given
to
covetousness
, from the
prophet even unto the
priest every one dealeth
falsely.

Were
they ashamed when they had
committed

they shall
be
cast
down

surely
consume them, saith
the
LORD:
there shall
be
no grapes on
the vine, nor
figs on
the fig tree, and the leaf shall
fade;

that
I
have given
them
shall
pass
away
from them.

Why
do
we sit
still? assemble
yourselves
, and let

us to
silence
, and
given
us water of gall to
drink
, because
we have sinned against the
LORD
.
Wherefore

still? Be

our God hath made
us silent
, Yea,
He
causeth
us to
drink
water of gall, For
we have sinned against Jehovah
.

is
no good ,
For a time of healing
, and lo,
terror.
