7. All its carved figures shall be broken to pieces,all its wages shall be burned in the fire,and all its idols I will destroy.As the wages of a prostitute it gathered them,and to the wages of a prostitute they shall return.
8. For this I will lament and wail,go barefoot and naked;I will utter lamentation like the jackals,mourning like the ostriches,
9. For her wound is incurable;it has come even to Judah.It has reached to the gate of my people,even to Jerusalem.
10. Do not announce it in Gath,do not weep at all;In Beth-leaphrahroll in the dust.
11. Pass by,you who dwell in Shaphir!The inhabitants of Zaanando not come forth from their city.There is lamentation in Beth-ezel.It will withdraw its support from you.
12. The inhabitants of Marothhope for good,But evil has come down from the Lordto the gate of Jerusalem.
