For thus hath Jehovah of hosts said, Hew ye down trees, and cast up a mound against Jerusalem: this is the city to be visited; she is wholly oppression in the midst of her.

For this is what the Lord of armies has said: Let trees be cut down and an earthwork be placed against Jerusalem: sorrow on the false town! inside her there is nothing but cruel ways.

Διοτι ουτω λεγει ο Κυριος των δυναμεων· Κατακοψατε δενδρα και υψωσατε περιχαρακωματα εναντιον της Ιερουσαλημ. Αυτη ειναι η πολις, εφ' ην πρεπει να γεινη επισκεψις· ειναι ολη καταδυναστεια εν μεσω αυτης.

For thus hath the Lord of hosts said, Hew ye down trees, and cast a mount against Jerusalem: this is the city to be visited; she is wholly oppression in the midst of her.
