Now, as to the house of the king of Judah, - hear ye the word of Yahweh: -

O house of David! Thus, saith Yahweh, Administer justice betimes, And deliver the robbed out of the hand of the oppressor, - Lest mine indignation come forth like fire And burn and there be none to quench it, Because of the wickedness of your doings:

Behold me! against thee, O thou dweller in the vale on the level rock, Declareth Yahweh, - Ye who are saying, Who shall come down upon us? Who shall enter our habitations?

Yet will I bring punishment upon you according to the fruit of your doings, Declareth Yahweh, - and will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all things round about her.
