71aBe silent before Lord Yahweh!

For the bday of Yahweh is near,

For Yahweh has prepared a csacrifice;

He has dset apart His guests.

8“Then it will be on the day of Yahweh’s sacrifice

That I will apunish the princes, the king’s sons,

And all who clothe themselves with bforeign garments.

9“And I will punish on that day all who leap on the temple threshold,

Who fill the house of their 1Lord with aviolence and deceit.

Stand in silence in the presence of the Sovereign Lord,

for the awesome day of the Lord’s judgment is near.

The Lord has prepared his people for a great slaughter

and has chosen their executioners.

“On that day of judgment,”

says the Lord,

“I will punish the leaders and princes of Judah

and all those following pagan customs.

and those who fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit.

Hold thy peace at the presence of the Lord God:

For the day of the Lord is at hand:

For the Lord hath prepared a sacrifice,

He hath bid his guests.

And it shall come to pass in the day of the Lord’s sacrifice,

That I will punish the princes, and the king’s children,

And all such as are clothed with strange apparel.

In the same day also will I punish all those that leap on the threshold,

Which fill their masters’ houses with violence and deceit.
