12 Be appalled, O heavens, at this;

be shocked, be utterly desolate,

declares the Lord,

13 for my people have committed two evils:

they have forsaken me,

the fountain of living waters,

and hewed out cisterns for themselves,

broken cisterns that can hold no water.

12 Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith the Lord. 13 For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

12 The heavens are shocked at such a thing

and shrink back in horror and dismay,”

says the Lord.

13 “For my people have done two evil things:

They have abandoned me—

the fountain of living water.

And they have dug for themselves cracked cisterns

that can hold no water at all!

12 Be astonished, O heavens, at this,

And be horribly afraid;

Be very desolate,” says the Lord.

13 “For My people have committed two evils:

They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters,

And hewn themselves cisterns—broken cisterns that can hold no water.

12 Skies, be shocked at the things that have happened

and shake with great fear!” says the Lord.

13 “My people have done two evils:

They have turned away from me,

the spring of living water.

And they have dug their own wells,

which are broken wells that cannot hold water.

12 Be astonished, O ye heavens, at this, and be horribly afraid, be ye very desolate, saith Jehovah. 13 For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

12 Be astonished, ye heavens, at this, and shudder; be amazed very much, saith Jehovah. 13 For my people have committed two evils: they have forsaken me, the fountain of living waters, to hew them out cisterns, broken cisterns that hold no water.

12 Be horrified over this, heaven. 

Be terribly afraid,” declares the Lord. 

13 “My people have done two things wrong. 

They have abandoned me, 

the fountain of life-giving water. 

They have also dug their own cisterns, 

broken cisterns that can’t hold water. 

12 Be horrified at this, heavens;

be shocked and utterly appalled.

This is the Lord’s declaration.

13 For My people have committed a double evil:

They have abandoned Me,

the fountain of living water,

and dug cisterns for themselves,

cracked cisterns that cannot hold water.

12 Be appalled, O heavens, at this,

be shocked, be utterly desolate,

says the Lord,

13 for my people have committed two evils:

they have forsaken me,

the fountain of living water,

and dug out cisterns for themselves,

cracked cisterns

that can hold no water.

12 Be appalled, O heavens, at this, and shudder;

be utterly desolate,” declares Yahweh.

13 “For my people have committed two evils:

they have forsaken me, the source of living water,

to hew out for themselves cisterns, cracked cisterns that can hold no water.

12 Sky above, be shocked over that.

Tremble with horror,”

announces the Lord.

13 “My people have sinned twice.

They have deserted me,

even though I am the spring of water that gives life.

And they have dug their own wells.

But those wells are broken.

They can’t hold any water.

12 “Be appalled, O heavens, at this,

And shudder, be very desolate,” declares the Lord.

13 “For My people have committed two evils:

They have forsaken Me,

The fountain of living waters,

To hew for themselves cisterns,

Broken cisterns

That can hold no water.
