Yet, the people, have not turned unto him that smote them, - And Yahweh of hosts, have they not sought.

Therefore hath Yahweh cut off from Israel - Head and tail Palm-top and rush, In one day.

The eider and favourite, he, is the head, - And the prophet teaching falsehood, he, is the tail;

And they who should have led this people forward have been causing them to stray, - And, they who are led of them are destroyed,

For this cause, over their choice young men, will My Lord not rejoice, And on their fatherless and their widows, will he not have compassion, For every one of them, is profane and an evildoer, And, every mouth is speaking baseness, - For all this, hath his anger, not turned back, But still, is his hand outstretched.
