And have not given ear to the voice of the Lord our God to go in the way of his laws which he put before us by the mouth of his servants the prophets.

יְהוָ֣ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

As it was recorded in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: but we have made no prayer for grace from the Lord our God that we might be turned from our evil doings and come to true wisdom.

יְהוָ֣ה Yah.weh “Yahweh”

So the Lord has been watching over this evil and has made it come on us: for the Lord our God is upright in all his acts which he has done, and we have not given ear to his voice.

And in that day, says the Lord, you will say to me, Ishi; and you will never again give me the name of Baali;

They will have food, but they will not be full; they will be false to me, but they will not be increased, because they no longer give thought to the Lord.

Do not you, O Israel, come into error; do not you, O Judah, come to Gilgal, or go up to Beth-aven, or take an oath, By the living Lord.

יְהוָֽה׃ Yah.weh “of Yahweh”

For Israel is uncontrolled, like a cow which may not be controlled; now will the Lord give them food like a lamb in a wide place.
