For thus says Yahweh of hosts,
(A)Cut down her trees
And cast up a (B)siege against Jerusalem.
This is the city to be punished,
In whose midst there is only (C)oppression.
(D)Like a well [a]keeps its waters fresh,
So she [b]keeps fresh her evil.
(E)Violence and devastation are heard in her;
(F)Sickness and wounds are continually before Me.
(G)Heed discipline, O Jerusalem,
Lest (H)My soul become disgusted at you,
Lest I make you a desolation,
A land not inhabited.”
