They were full of pride and did what was disgusting to me: and so I took them away as you have seen.

לְפָנָ֑י (לְ) le. “<to>”

And you yourself will be put to shame, in that you have given the decision for your sisters; through your sins, which are more disgusting than theirs, they are more upright than you: truly, you will be shamed and made low, for you have made your sisters

לַֽאֲחוֹתֵ֔ךְ (לַֽ) la. “for”

And your sisters, Sodom and her daughters, will go back to their first condition, and Samaria and her daughters will go back to their first condition, and you and your daughters will go back to your first condition.

Was not your sister Sodom an oath in your mouth in the day of your pride,

For this is what the Lord has said: I will do to you as you have done, you who, putting the oath on one side, have let the agreement be broken.

לְהָפֵ֥ר (לְ) le. “by”

But still I will keep in mind the agreement made with you in the days when you were young, and I will make with you an eternal agreement.

Then at the memory of your ways you will be overcome with shame, when I take your sisters, the older and the younger, and give them to you for daughters, but not by your agreement.

So that, at the memory of these things, you may be at a loss, never opening your mouth because of your shame; when you have my forgiveness for all you have done, says the Lord.

And its growth went on and it became a vine, low and widely stretching, whose branches were turned to him and its roots were under him: so it became a vine, putting out branches and young leaves.

לְגֶ֨פֶן (לְ) le. “<into>”לִפְנ֤וֹת (לִ) li “to”לְגֶ֔פֶן (לְ) le. “<into>”

And there was another eagle with great wings and thick feathers: and now this vine, pushing out its roots to him, sent out its branches in his direction from the bed where it was planted, so that he might give it water.

And Pharaoh with his strong army and great forces will be no help to him in the war, when they put up earthworks and make strong walls for the cutting off of lives:
