1. Moreover the word of the Lord came to me, saying,
2. “Go and cry in the hearing of Jerusalem, saying, ‘Thus says the Lord:“I remember you,The kindness of your youth,The love of your betrothal,When you went after Me in the wilderness,In a land not sown.
3. Israel was holiness to the Lord,The firstfruits of His increase.All that devour him will offend;Disaster will come upon them,” says the Lord.’ ”
4. Hear the word of the Lord, O house of Jacob and all the families of the house of Israel.
