those who are for famine, to famine,
and those who are for captivity, to captivity.’

The Destruction of Israel
1I saw the Lord standing beside ▼▼Or on
the altar, and he said: t“Strike the capitals until uthe thresholds vshake,
wand shatter them on the heads of all the people; ▼
▼Hebrew all of them
and those who are left of them I will kill with the sword;
ynot one of them shall flee away;
not one of them shall escape.
2 z“If they dig into Sheol,
from there shall my hand take them;
aaif they climb up to heaven,
from there I will bring them down.
