5 And those who bow down on the roofsto the host of heaven,And those who bow down to the Lordbut swear by Milcom;
6 And those who have turned away from the Lord,and those who have not sought the Lord,who have not inquired of him.
7 Silence in the presence of the Lord God!for near is the day of the Lord,Yes, the Lord has prepared a sacrifice,he has consecrated his guests.
8 On the day of the Lord’s sacrificeI will punish the officials and the king’s sons,and all who dress in foreign apparel.
9 I will punish, on that day,all who leap over the threshold,Who fill the house of their masterwith violence and deceit.
10 On that day—oracle of the Lord—A cry will be heard from the Fish Gate,a wail from the Second Quarter,loud crashing from the hills.
11 Wail, O inhabitants of Maktesh!for all the merchants are destroyed,all who weigh out silver, done away with.
