וְהוּא לֹא־כֵן יְדַמֶּה וּלְבָבוֹ לֹא־כֵן יַחְשֹׁב כִּי לְהַשְׁמִיד בִּלְבָבוֹ וּלְהַכְרִית גּוֹיִם לֹא מְעָֽט
Howbeit he meaneth not so, Neither doth his heart think so; But it is in his heart to destroy, And to cut off nations not a few.
כִּי יֹאמַר הֲלֹא שָׂרַי יַחְדָּו מְלָכִֽים
For he saith: ‘Are not my princes all of them kings?
הֲלֹא כְּכַרְכְּמִישׁ כַּלְנוֹ אִם־לֹא כְאַרְפַּד חֲמָת אִם־לֹא כְדַמֶּשֶׂק שֹׁמְרֽוֹן
Is not Calno as Carchemish? Is not Hamath as Arpad? Is not Samaria as Damascus?
כַּאֲשֶׁר מָצְאָה יָדִי לְמַמְלְכֹת הָאֱלִיל וּפְסִילֵיהֶם מִירֽוּשָׁלִַם וּמִשֹּׁמְרֽוֹן
As my hand hath reached the kingdoms of the idols, Whose graven images did exceed them of Jerusalem and of Samaria;
הֲלֹא כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשִׂיתִי לְשֹׁמְרוֹן וְלֶאֱלִילֶיהָ כֵּן אֶעֱשֶׂה לִירוּשָׁלִַם וְלַעֲצַבֶּֽיהָ
Shall I not, as I have done unto Samaria and her idols, So do to Jerusalem and her idols?’
