28 Because thy rage against Me and thy insolence is come up into Mine ears, therefore I will put My hook in thy nose, and My Bit in thy sfatayim (lips), and I will turn thee back by the derech by which thou camest.

29 And this shall be HaOt (the Sign) unto thee, Ye shall eat this year such that growth of itself, and the second year that which springeth from the same; and in the third year sow ye, and reap, and plant kramim (vineyards) and eat the fruit thereof.

28 Because you rage against me
    and because your insolence has reached my ears,
I will put my hook(A) in your nose
    and my bit(B) in your mouth,

    and the second year what springs from that.
But in the third year sow and reap,
    plant vineyards(F) and eat their fruit.

    will take root(H) below and bear fruit above.
