¹⁸ 耶和华是公义的！他这样待我，是因我违背他的命令。众民哪，请听我的话，看我的痛苦；我的处女和少年人都被掳去。

¹⁸ 我若出往田间，就见有被刀杀的；我若进入城内，就见有因饥荒患病的；连先知带祭司在国中往来，也是毫无知识（或译：不知怎样才好）。

¹ Awake, Awake, put on your strength, Zion; put on your beautiful garments, Jerusalem, the holy city: for henceforth there shall no more come into you the uncircumcised and the unclean.

² Shake yourself from the dust; arise, sit [on your throne], Jerusalem: release yourself from the bonds of your neck, captive daughter of Zion.
