7 Therefore shall they now go captive, with the first that go captive, and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.
8 The Lord Jehovah hath sworn by himself, saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will deliver up the city with all that is therein.
9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
10 And a man's uncle, and he that should burn him, shall take him up to bring out the bones from the house, and shall say unto him that is in the inner parts of the house, Is there yet anywith thee? and he shall say, None. And he will say, Silence! for we may not make mention of Jehovah's name.
11 For behold, Jehovah commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will men plough thereon with oxen? For ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood,
13 --ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say, Have we not taken to us power by our own strength?
