1“ Woe

5“ Behold 2 “ that I will raise to David a righteous Branch; 1 and he will reign as king and deal wisely, 2 and will execute justice and righteousness in the land. 1

6In 2 and Israel will dwell safely. 1 This is his name by which he will be called: 2 The LORD our righteousness.

7“ Therefore

8but

9Concerning 1 My heart within me is broken. 2 All my bones shake. 1 I am like a drunken man, 2 and like a man whom wine has overcome, 1 because of the LORD, 2 and because of his holy words. 1

10“ For 2 for because of the curse the land mourns. 1 The pastures of the wilderness have dried up. 2 Their course is evil, 2 and their might is not right; 1

11for 2 Yes, in my house I have found their wickedness,” says the LORD. 1

12Therefore 2 They will be driven on, 2 and fall therein; 1 for I will bring evil on them, 2 even the year of their visitation,” says the LORD. 1

13“ I 2 They prophesied by Baal, 2 and caused my people Israel to err. 1

14In 2 they commit adultery and walk in lies. 1 They strengthen the hands of evildoers, 2 so that no one returns from his wickedness. 1 They have all become to me as Sodom, 2 and its inhabitants as Gomorrah.”

15Therefore 1 “ Behold, I will feed them with wormwood, 2 and make them drink poisoned water; 2 for from the prophets of Jerusalem ungodliness has gone out into all the land.”

16The 1 “Don’t listen to the words of the prophets who prophesy to you. 2 They teach you vanity. 2 They speak a vision of their own heart, 2 and not out of the mouth of the LORD. 1

17They 2 ‘ The LORD has said, “ You will have peace;”’ 1 and to everyone who walks in the stubbornness of his own heart they say, 2 ‘ No evil will come on you.’ 1

18For 2 that he should perceive and hear his word? 2 Who has listened to my word, and heard it? 1

19Behold 2 Yes, a whirling storm! 2 It will burst on the head of the wicked. 1

20The 2 and performed the intents of his heart. 2 In the latter days, you will understand it perfectly. 1

21I 2 I didn’t speak to them, yet they prophesied. 1

22But 2 then they would have caused my people to hear my words, 1 and would have turned them from their evil way, 2 and from the evil of their doings. 1

23“ Am 2 “ and not a God afar off? 1

24Can 2 so that I can’t see him?” says the LORD. 2 “Don’t I fill heaven and earth?” says the LORD.
