¹⁶ Derfor skal du si: Så sier Herren, Israels Gud: Da jeg lot dem fare langt bort iblandt hedningefolkene, da jeg spredte dem i landene, blev jeg en kort tid en helligdom* for dem i de land de var kommet til. / {* JES 8, 14.}

¹ Herrens hånd kom over mig, og Herren førte mig i ånden ut og satte mig ned midt i dalen, og den var full av ben.

²³ Because you have burned incense, and because you have sinned against Yahweh, and have not obeyed the voice of Yahweh, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil has happened to you, as it is this day.
