יָעַצְתָּ בֹּשֶׁת לְבֵיתֶךָ קְצוֹת־עַמִּים רַבִּים וְחוֹטֵא נַפְשֶֽׁךָ
Thou hast devised shame to thy house, By cutting off many peoples, And hast forfeited thy life.
כִּי־אֶבֶן מִקִּיר תִּזְעָק וְכָפִיס מֵעֵץ יַעֲנֶֽנָּה
For the stone shall cry out of the wall, And the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
הוֹי בֹּנֶה עִיר בְּדָמִים וְכוֹנֵן קִרְיָה בְּעַוְלָֽה
Woe to him that buildeth a town with blood, And establisheth a city by iniquity!
הֲלוֹא הִנֵּה מֵאֵת יְהוָה צְבָאוֹת וְיִֽיגְעוּ עַמִּים בְּדֵי־אֵשׁ וּלְאֻמִּים בְּדֵי־רִיק יִעָֽפוּ
Behold, is it not of the LORD of hosts That the peoples labour for the fire, And the nations weary themselves for vanity?
כִּי תִּמָּלֵא הָאָרֶץ לָדַעַת אֶת־כְּבוֹד יְהוָה כַּמַּיִם יְכַסּוּ עַל־יָֽם
For the earth shall be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, As the waters cover the sea.
