16. But because you are posher (lukewarm) and neither kham nor kar, I am about to spew you out of my mouth.
17. Because you say, I am ashir (rich) and have become wealthy and in nothing am I nitzrach (needy), and you do not have da'as that you are the one wretched and pitiful and poor and blind and naked, [HOSHEA 12:8]
18. I counsel you to buy from me zahav (gold) having been purified by eish (fire) --that you may be oisher (rich) --and a kittel, that you may be clothed in lavan (white), and that the bushah (shame) of your nakedness not be made nikar (evident), and eye salve to rub on the eynayim (eyes) of you that you may see.
19. Those for whom I have ahavah I reprove and discipline. Be kham (hot), therefore, in kanous (zeal) for Hashem and make teshuva. [DEVARIM 8:5; MISHLE 3:12]
