H0853–אֵת–et

Now, because you have done all these works, says Yahweh, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you didn't hear; and I called you, but you didn't answer:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֖ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

I will cast you out of my sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, even the whole seed of Ephraim.

אֶתְכֶ֖ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

Therefore don't you pray for this people, neither lift up a cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me; for I will not hear you.

אֹתָֽךְ׃ (אֹתָֽ) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead the dough, to make cakes to the queen of the sky, and to pour out drink-offerings to other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Do they provoke me to anger? says Yahweh; [ergänzt: do they] not [ergänzt: provoke] themselves, to the confusion of their own faces?

הַאֹתִ֛י (אֹתִ֛) 'o.T “<obj.>”אֹתָ֔ם (אֹתָ֔) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

For I didn't speak to your fathers, nor command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices:

אוֹתָ֖ם (אוֹתָ֖) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”

but this thing I commanded them, saying, Listen to my voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk you in all the way that I command you, that it may be well with you.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אוֹתָ֤ם (אוֹתָ֤) 'o.Ta “<obj.>”אֶתְכֶ֔ם (אֶתְ) 'et. “<obj.>”

But they didn't listen nor turn their ear, but walked in [ergänzt: their own] counsels [ergänzt: and] in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward, and not forward.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Since the day that your fathers came forth out of the land of Egypt to this day, I have sent to you all my servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending them:

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

yet they didn't listen to me, nor inclined their ear, but made their neck stiff: they did worse than their fathers.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

You shall speak all these words to them; but they will not listen to you: you shall also call to them; but they will not answer you.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

Cut off your hair, [ergänzt: Jerusalem], and cast it away, and take up a lamentation on the bare heights; for Yahweh has rejected and forsaken the generation of his wrath.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

They have built the high places of Topheth, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I didn't command, neither came it into my mind.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”

At that time, says Yahweh, they shall bring out the bones of the kings of Judah, and the bones of his princes, and the bones of the priests, and the bones of the prophets, and the bones of the inhabitants of Jerusalem, out of their graves;

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֶת־ (אֶת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֵ֣ת׀ (אֵ֣ת) 'Et “<obj.>”וְאֵ֛ת (אֵ֛ת) 'Et “<obj.>”

Yes, the stork in the sky knows her appointed times; and the turtle-dove and the swallow and the crane observe the time of their coming; but my people don't know Yahweh's law.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”אֵ֖ת 'et “<obj.>”

Therefore will I give their wives to others, and their fields to those who shall possess them: for everyone from the least even to the greatest is given to covetousness; from the prophet even to the priest every one deals falsely.

אֶת־ 'et- “<obj.>”

They bend their tongue, [ergänzt: as it were] their bow, for falsehood; and they are grown strong in the land, but not for truth: for they proceed from evil to evil, and they don't know me, says Yahweh.
