²⁵ 万军之耶和华─以色列的神如此说：你们和你们的妻都口中说、手里做，说：我们定要偿还所许的愿，向天后烧香、浇奠祭。现在你们只管坚定所许的愿而偿还罢！

¹⁷ 原来栽培你的万军之耶和华已经说，要降祸攻击你，是因以色列家和犹大家行恶，向巴力烧香，惹我发怒，是自作自受。

²⁹ Don't rejoice, O Philistia, all of you, because the rod that struck you is broken; for out of the serpent's root an adder will emerge, and his fruit will be a fiery flying serpent.

³⁰ The firstborn of the poor will eat, and the needy will lie down in safety; and I will kill your root with famine, and your remnant will be killed.
