8So two or three cities vvwandered unto one city, to drink water;
But they were not satisfied:
sYet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.
9wI have smitten you with blasting and mildew:
When your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased,
xThe palmerworm xxdevoured them:
sYet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.
10I have sent among you the pestilence yafter the manner of Egypt:
Your young men have I slain with the sword, and zhave taken away your horses;
And I have made athe stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils:
sYet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.
11I have overthrown some of you, bas God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
And ye were as cda firebrand cepluckt out of the burning:
sYet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.

so two or three cities would wander to another city
to drink water, and would not be satisfied;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
“I struck you with blight and mildew;
your many gardens and your vineyards,
your fig trees and your olive trees the locust devoured;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
“I sent among you a pestilence after the manner of Egypt;
I killed your young men with the sword,
and carried away your horses,
and I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.
“I overthrew some of you,
as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
and you were as a brand plucked out of the burning;
yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.

as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

So two or three cities wandered to one city to drink water and they were not satisfied, yet you did not return to me,” is the declaration of Yahweh. “I struck you with blight and with mildew. Frequently the cutting locust devoured your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees, yet you did not return to me,” is the declaration of Yahweh. “I sent among you a plague in the manner of Egypt; I killed your young men with the sword, along with the captivity of your horses. And I made the stench of your camps go up into your nostrils, yet you did not return to me,” is the declaration of Yahweh. “I overthrew some of you as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were as a stick snatched from the fire, and yet you did not return to me,” is the declaration of Yahweh.
