And I will stretch out My hand against them, and I will make the land desolate and ruined from the wilderness of Diblah, in all their habitations; [and] you shall know that I am the Lord.

Son of man, if a land shall sin against Me by committing a trespass, then will I stretch out My hand upon it, and will break its staff of bread, and will send forth famine upon it, and cut off man and beast from it.

If again I bring evil beasts upon the land, and take vengeance upon it, and it is ruined, and there be no one to pass through for fear of the wild beasts;

Or again if I bring a sword upon that land, and say, Let the sword go through the land; and I cut off from them man and beast;

Or [if] again I send pestilence upon that land, and pour out My wrath upon it in blood, to destroy from off it man and beast;

Thus says the Lord: And if I even send upon Jerusalem My four severe judgments- the sword, famine, evil beasts, and pestilence, to destroy from out of it [both] man and beast;

And they shall know that I am the Lord; and I will make their land desolate, and it shall be made desolate because of all their abominations which they have done.

And I said, How long, O Lord? And He said, Until cities are deserted by reason of them not being inhabited, and the houses by reason of there being no men, and the land shall be left desolate.

The earth shall be completely laid waste, and the earth shall be utterly spoiled; for the mouth of the Lord has spoken these things.

And she has sinned by reason of her inhabitants; because they have transgressed the law, and changed the ordinances, [even] the everlasting covenant.

The wine shall mourn, the vine shall mourn, all the merry-hearted shall sigh.

They are ashamed, they have not drunk wine; strong drink has become bitter to them that drink [it].

There is a howling for the wine everywhere; all the mirth of the land has ceased, all the mirth of the land has departed.

And I will destroy from [among] them the voice of joy, and the voice of gladness, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride, the scent of ointment, and the light of a candle.

And all the land shall be a desolation; and they shall serve among the Gentiles seventy years.

And their silver and their gold shall by no means be able to rescue them in the day of the Lord's wrath; but the whole land shall be devoured by the fire of His jealously; for He will bring a speedy destruction on all them that inhabit the land.

And all the great men of Judah, and the priests, and the people of the land transgressed abundantly in the abominations of the heathen, and polluted the house of the Lord which [was] in Jerusalem.

Nevertheless they sneered at His messengers, and despised His words, and mocked His prophets, until the wrath of the Lord rose up against His people, till there was no remedy.
