5Why should you be beaten more, That you revolt more and more? The whole head is sick, And the whole heart faint.
6From the sole of the foot even to the head there is no soundness in it: Wounds, welts, and open sores. They haven`t been closed, neither bandaged, neither soothed with oil.
7Your country is desolate. Your cities are burned with fire. Strangers devour your land in your presence, And it is desolate, As overthrown by strangers.
8The daughter of Zion is left as a booth in a vineyard, As a lodge in a garden of cucumbers, As a besieged city.
9Unless Yahweh of hosts had left to us a very small remnant, We would have been as Sodom; We would have been like Gomorrah.
10Hear the word of Yahweh, you rulers of Sodom. Listen to the law of our God, you people of Gomorrah.
11What are the multitude of your sacrifices to me?, says Yahweh. I have had enough of the burnt offerings of rams, And the fat of fed animals. I don`t delight in the blood of bulls, Or of lambs, Or of male goats.
