10 “On that day,”

declares the Lord,

“a cry will go up from the Fish Gate,

wailing from the New Quarter,

and a loud crash from the hills.

11 Wail, you who live in the market district;

all your merchants will be wiped out,

all who trade with silver will be destroyed.

12 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps

and punish those who are complacent,

who are like wine left on its dregs,

who think, ‘The Lord will do nothing,

either good or bad.’

10 “On that day,” declares the Lord,

“a cry will be heard from the Fish Gate,

a wail from the Second Quarter,

a loud crash from the hills.

11 Wail, O inhabitants of the Mortar!

For all the traders are no more;

all who weigh out silver are cut off.

12 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

and I will punish the men

who are complacent,

those who say in their hearts,

‘The Lord will not do good,

nor will he do ill.’

10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, That there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, And an howling from the second, And a great crashing from the hills. 11 Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh, For all the merchant people are cut down; All they that bear silver are cut off. 12 And it shall come to pass at that time, That I will search Jerusalem with candles, And punish the men that are settled on their lees: That say in their heart, The Lord will not do good, neither will he do evil.

10 “On that day,” says the Lord,

“a cry of alarm will come from the Fish Gate

and echo throughout the New Quarter of the city.

And a great crash will sound from the hills.

11 Wail in sorrow, all you who live in the market area,

for all the merchants and traders will be destroyed.

12 “I will search with lanterns in Jerusalem’s darkest corners

to punish those who sit complacent in their sins.

They think the Lord will do nothing to them,

either good or bad.

10 “And there shall be on that day,” says the Lord,

“The sound of a mournful cry from the Fish Gate,

A wailing from the Second Quarter,

And a loud crashing from the hills.

11 Wail, you inhabitants of Maktesh!

For all the merchant people are cut down;

All those who handle money are cut off.

12 “And it shall come to pass at that time

That I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

And punish the men

Who are settled in complacency,

Who say in their heart,

‘The Lord will not do good,

Nor will He do evil.’

10 “On that day,” says the Lord,

“a cry will be heard at the Fish Gate.

A wail will come from the new area of the city,

and a loud crash will echo from the hills.

11 Cry, you people living in the market area,

because all the merchants will be dead;

all the silver traders will be gone.

12 At that time I, the Lord, will search Jerusalem with lamps.

I will punish those who are satisfied with themselves,

who think, ‘The Lord won’t help us or punish us.’

10 And in that day, saith Jehovah, there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish gate, and a wailing from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills. 11 Wail, ye inhabitants of Maktesh; for all the people of Canaan are undone; all they that were laden with silver are cut off. 12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps; and I will punish the men that are settled on their lees, that say in their heart, Jehovah will not do good, neither will he do evil.

10 And in that day, saith Jehovah, there shall be the noise of a cry from the fish-gate, and a howling from the second quarter, and a great crashing from the hills. 11 Howl, ye inhabitants of Maktesh; for all the people of Canaan are cut down, all they that are laden with silver are cut off. 12 And it shall come to pass at that time, that I will search Jerusalem with lamps, and punish the men that are settled on their lees, that say in their heart, Jehovah will not do good, neither will he do evil.

10 On that day a loud cry will come from Fish Gate, 

a howling from the Second Part of the city, 

and a loud crashing sound from the hills,” declares the Lord. 

11 “Howl, inhabitants of the Mortar,

because all the merchants will be destroyed 

and all who handle money will be killed. 

12 “At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish those 

who are satisfied with their hardened lifestyle, 

who think that the Lord won’t do anything—good or bad. 

10 On that day—

this is the Lord’s declaration—

there will be an outcry from the Fish Gate,

a wailing from the Second District,

and a loud crashing from the hills.

11 Wail, you residents of the Hollow,

for all the merchants will be silenced;

all those loaded with silver will be cut off.

12 And at that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps

and punish the men who settle down comfortably,

who say to themselves:

The Lord will not do good or evil.

10 On that day, says the Lord,

a cry will be heard from the Fish Gate,

a wail from the Second Quarter,

a loud crash from the hills.

11 The inhabitants of the Mortar wail,

for all the traders have perished;

all who weigh out silver are cut off.

12 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

and I will punish the people

who rest complacently on their dregs,

those who say in their hearts,

“The Lord will not do good,

nor will he do harm.”

10 “And there shall be on that day”—a declaration of Yahweh—

“a loud outcry from the Fish Gate,

and a wailing from the Second District,

and a loud crashing from the hills.

11 The inhabitants of the Mortar shall wail,

for all the traders have perished;

all who trade with silver have been cut off.

12 And it shall be that at that time

I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

and I will punish the men

whose senses are dulled from drinking,

who say in their hearts,

‘Yahweh will not do good, nor will he do evil.’

10 “On that day,” declares the Lord,

“There will be the sound of a cry from the Fish Gate,

A wail from the Second Quarter,

And a loud crash from the hills.

11 “Wail, O inhabitants of the Mortar,

For all the people of Canaan will be silenced;

All who weigh out silver will be cut off.

12 “It will come about at that time

That I will search Jerusalem with lamps,

And I will punish the men

Who are stagnant in spirit,

Who say in their hearts,

‘The Lord will not do good or evil!’
