(A)As a well [a]keeps its waters fresh,
So she [b]keeps fresh her wickedness.
(B)Violence and destruction are heard in her;
(C)Sickness and wounds are constantly before Me.
(D)Be warned, Jerusalem,
Or [c](E)I shall be alienated from you,
And make you a desolation,
An uninhabited land.”

This is what the Lord of armies says:
“They will (F)thoroughly glean the (G)remnant of Israel like the vine;
Pass your hand over the branches again
Like a grape gatherer.”
