³ Iš šiaurės prieš jį ateina tauta. Ji pavers kraštą dykyne; žmonės ir gyvuliai jame nebegyvens, pabėgs iš jo.

³⁴ Tada nė vienas nebemokys savo artimo ir nebesakys savo broliui: ‘Pažink Viešpatį!’ Jie visi, nuo mažiausiojo iki didžiausiojo, mane pažins. Aš atleisiu jų kaltę ir jų nuodėmės nebeprisiminsiu”.

⁴⁶ Your elder sister is Samaria, who dwells at your left hand, she and her daughters; and your younger sister, who dwells at your right hand, is Sodom and her daughters.

⁴⁷ Yet have you not walked in their ways, nor done after their abominations; but, as [if that were] a very little [thing], you were more corrupt than they in all your ways.

⁴⁸ As I live, says the Lord Yahweh, Sodom your sister has not done, she nor her daughters, as you have done, you and your daughters.

⁴⁹ Behold, this was the iniquity of your sister Sodom: pride, fullness of bread, and prosperous ease was in her and in her daughters; neither did she strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.

⁵⁰ They were haughty, and committed abomination before me: therefore I took them away as I saw [good].
