³⁸ Izraelovi se ljudi bijahu dogovorili s onima u zasjedi da ovi podignu iz grada stup dima kao znak:

²⁵ Don't go forth into the field, nor walk by the way; for the sword of the enemy, [and] terror, are on every side.

²⁶ Daughter of my people, clothe yourself with sackcloth, and wallow in ashes! Mourn, as for an only son, most bitter lamentation; for the destroyer shall suddenly come on us.
