1 And came to be the word of YHWH to me, saying: 2 “And you, son of man, thus says the Lord YHWH to the land of Israel, ‘An end has come, the end upon the four corners of the land! 3 Now the end is upon you—and I will send My nose against you, and I will judge you according to your ways, and I will recompense upon you all your abominations! 4 And My eye will not have pity on you, and I will not have pity; for your ways I will recompense against you, and for your abominations that are in your midst. And you⁺ will know that I am YHWH.’ 5 Thus says the Lord YHWH: ‘Disaster! A unique disaster! Behold, it is coming! 6 An end has come; the end has come! It has roused itself against you. Behold, it is coming. 7 Doom has come to you, O dweller of the land; the time has come, the day is near—of tumult, and not of rejoicing in the mountains! 8 Now soon I will pour out My fury upon you, and will complete My anger My anger; and I will judge you according to your ways, and I will recompense upon you for all your abominations. 9 And My eye will not have pity, and I will not have pity; according to your ways I will recompense upon you, and your abominations will be in your midst. And you⁺ will know that I am YHWH, the One striking. 10 Behold, the day! Behold, it is coming! The doom has gone forth, the rod has blossomed, the arrogance has budded. 11 Violence has risen up into a rod of wickedness—none of them, and none of their multitude, and none of their wealth, and nothing of eminence among them. 12 The time has come, the day has drawn near! Let the buyer not rejoice, and let the seller not mourn; for wrath is upon all their multitude. 13 For the one selling will not return to what has been sold while they live their life; for the vision is to the whole multitude, and it will not turn back; and a man cannot by his iniquity strengthen his life.
