- 主耶和华说,我指着我的永生起誓,因你用一切可憎的物,可厌的事玷污了我的圣所,故此,我定要使你人数减少,我眼必不顾惜你,也不可怜你。
- 你的民三分之一必遭瘟疫而死,在你中间必因饥荒消灭。三分之一必在你四围倒在刀下。我必将三分之一分散四方(方原文作风),并要拔刀追赶他们。
- 我要这样成就怒中所定的。我向他们发的忿怒止息了,自己就得着安慰。我在他们身上成就怒中所定的那时,他们就知道我耶和华所说的是出于热心。
- 并且我必使你在四围的列国中,在经过的众人眼前,成了荒凉和羞辱。
- 这样,我必以怒气和忿怒,并烈怒的责备,向你施行审判。那时,你就在四围的列国中成为羞辱,讥刺,警戒,惊骇。这是我耶和华说的。

- Therefore as surely as I live, declares the Sovereign LORD, because you have defiled my sanctuary with all your vile images and detestable practices, I myself will withdraw my favor; I will not look on you with pity or spare you.
- A third of your people will die of the plague or perish by famine inside you; a third will fall by the sword outside your walls; and a third I will scatter to the winds and pursue with drawn sword.
- "Then my anger will cease and my wrath against them will subside, and I will be avenged. And when I have spent my wrath upon them, they will know that I the LORD have spoken in my zeal.
- "I will make you a ruin and a reproach among the nations around you, in the sight of all who pass by.
- You will be a reproach and a taunt, a warning and an object of horror to the nations around you when I inflict punishment on you in anger and in wrath and with stinging rebuke. I the LORD have spoken.
