That city, the pride of ·Israel’s [L Ephraim’s] drunken people,
    will be trampled underfoot.
That beautiful ·crown [wreath; garland] of flowers is ·just a dying plant [fading]
    set on ·a hill above [L the head of] a rich valley.
That city will be like the first ripe fig of summer.
    Anyone who sees it
quickly ·picks it [takes it in hand] and ·eats [swallows] it.

·At that time [L In that day] the Lord ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; T of hosts]
    ·will be like [L will be] a beautiful crown,
·like a wonderful [a beautiful] ·crown of flowers [wreath; garland; diadem]
    for ·his people who are left alive [the remnant of his people].
