⁶ “But I gave you also ^(A)cleanness of teeth in all your cities
And lack of bread in all your places,
Yet you have ^(B)not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.
⁷ “And I also ^(C)withheld the rain from you
While there were still three months until harvest.
Then I would send rain on one city,
And on ^(D)another city I would not send rain;
One portion would be rained on,
While the portion not rained on would dry up.
⁸ So two or three cities would wander around to another city to drink ^(E)water,
But would ^(F)not be satisfied;
Yet you have ^(G)not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.
⁹ “I ^(H)struck you with scorching wind and mildew;
And the ^(I)gnawing locust was devouring
Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees, and olive trees;
Yet you have ^(J)not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.
¹⁰ “I sent a ^(K)pestilence among you after the manner of Egypt;
I ^(L)killed your choice men by the sword along with your ^(M)captured horses,
And I made the ^(N)stench of your camp rise up even in your nostrils;
Yet you have ^(O)not returned to Me,” declares Yahweh.
