For everyone who ^(B)steals shall be cleaned out according to what is on one side, and everyone who ^(C)swears falsely^[a] shall be cleaned out according to what is on the other side. ⁴ I will send it out, declares the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter the house of the thief, and the house of ^(D)him who swears falsely by my name. And ^(E)it shall remain in his house and ^(F)consume it, both timber and stones.”
