Be silent before the face of the Lord Jehovah, for the day of Jehovah is near. For Jehovah has appointed a sacrifice; He has consecrated ones He called.

And it shall be in the day of the sacrifice of Jehovah, I will punish the rulers and the king's sons, and all those clothed in foreign clothing.

And I will punish all those who leap on the threshold in that day, who fill their masters' houses with violence and deceit.

And it shall be in that day, declares Jehovah, the sound of a cry from the Fish Gate, and a howling from the Second, and a great breaking from the hills.

Howl, those living in Maktesh, for all the people of Canaan have perished; all those carrying silver are cut off.

And it shall be in that time, I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and punish the men being settled on their lees; who say in their heart, Jehovah will not do good, nor will He do evil.

And their goods shall become a prize, and their houses a waste. They shall also build houses, but not live there . And they shall plant vineyards, but not drink their wine.
