1Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Moab, "" And for four, I do not reverse it, "" Because of his burning the bones of the king of Edom to lime,

2And I have sent a fire against Moab, "" And it has consumed the palaces of Kerioth, "" And Moab is dying with noise, "" With shouting, with voice of a horn.

3And I have cut off judge from her midst, "" And I slay all its heads with him,” said YHWH.

4Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Judah, "" And for four, I do not reverse it, "" Because of their loathing the Law of YHWH, "" And His statutes they have not kept, "" And their lies cause them to err, "" After which their fathers walked,

5And I have sent a fire against Judah, "" And it has consumed palaces of Jerusalem.”

6Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Israel, "" And for four, I do not reverse it, "" Because of their selling the righteous for silver, "" And the needy for a pair of sandals.

7Who are panting for the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, "" And the way of the humble they turn aside, "" And a man and his father go to the girl, "" So as to defile My holy Name.

8And they stretch themselves on pledged garments near every altar, "" And the wine of fined ones they drink [in] the house of their gods.

9And I have destroyed the Amorite from before them, "" Whose height [is] as the height of cedars, "" And he [is] strong as the oaks, "" And I destroy his fruit from above, "" And his roots from beneath.

10And I have brought you up from the land of Egypt, "" And cause you to go in a wilderness forty years, "" To possess the land of the Amorite.

11And I raise of your sons for prophets, "" And of your choice ones for Nazarites, "" Is this not true, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH.

12“And you cause the Nazarites to drink wine, "" And on the prophets you have laid a charge, "" Saying, Do not prophesy!

13Behold, I am pressing you under, "" As the full cart presses a sheaf for itself.

14And refuge has perished from the swift, "" And the strong does not strengthens his power, "" And the mighty does not deliver his soul.

15And the handler of the bow does not stand, "" And the swift does not deliver [himself] with his feet, "" And the rider of the horse does not deliver his soul.

16And the courageous of heart among the mighty, "" Flees naked in that day,” "" A declaration of YHWH!
