7The moment I speak concerning a nation, And concerning a kingdom, To pluck up and to break down, and to destroy,
8And that nation hath turned from its evil, Because I have spoken against it, Then I have repented of the evil that I thought to do to it.
9And the moment I speak concerning a nation, And concerning a kingdom, to build, and to plant,
10And it hath done the evil thing in Mine eyes, So as not to hearken to My voice, Then I have repented of the good That I have spoken of doing to it.
11And now, speak, I pray thee, unto men of Judah, And against inhabitants of Jerusalem, Saying: Thus said Jehovah: Lo, I am framing against you evil, And devising against you a device, Turn back, I pray you, each from his evil way And amen your ways and your doings.
12And they have said, It is incurable, For after our own devices we do go, And each the stubbornness of his evil heart we do.
13Therefore, thus said Jehovah: Ask, I pray you, among the nations, Who hath heard like these? A very horrible thing hath the virgin of Israel done.
