And you will (A)swear, ‘As the Lord lives,’
(B)In truth, in justice and in righteousness;
Then the (C)nations will bless themselves in Him,
And (D)in Him they will glory.”

For thus says the Lord to the men of Judah and to Jerusalem,

[a](E)Break up your fallow ground,
And (F)do not sow among thorns.
(G)Circumcise yourselves to the Lord
And remove the foreskins of your heart,
Men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem,
Or else My (H)wrath will go forth like fire
And burn with (I)none to quench it,
Because of the evil of your deeds.”
