Hear ye, and testify against the house of Jacob, saith the Lord Jehovah, the God of hosts.

The Lord Jehovah hath sworn by himself, saith Jehovah, the God of hosts: I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces; therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.

And it came to pass that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.

Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, cease, I beseech thee: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.

Jehovah hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; save that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith Jehovah.
