they have become her enemies.

because my enemy boasts!”

The Prophet Speaks:

like filthy garbage in their midst.

there is no more guidance available.

As for her prophets,

they no longer receive a vision from the Lord.

ש (Sin/Shin)

1:21 They have heard that I groan,

yet there is no one to comfort me.

All my enemies have heard of my trouble;

they are glad that you have brought it about.

Bring about the day of judgment that you promised

so that they may end up like me!
