1 Thus says YHWH: “Where is this certificate of divorce of your? mother, whom I have sent away? Or which of My creditors—whom did I sell you? to him? Behold, by your? iniquities you? have sold yourselves, and by your? transgressions your? mother has been sent away.

2 Why, did I come, and there was no man? Why did I call, and there was no one answering? Is My hand too short to redeem? Or is there not in Me power to deliver? Behold, by My rebuke I dry up the sea; I make the rivers a desert—their fish stink for lack of water and die of thirst.

3 I clothe the heavens with blackness, and I make sackcloth their covering.”

4 The Lord YHWH has given to me the tongue of the learned, knowing to help the weary with a word. He awakens me morning by morning; He awakens for me the ear to hear like the learned ones.

5 The Lord YHWH has opened for me the ear, and I have not been rebellious; and I have not turned back.
