&#8220;The <sc>Lordsc> who rules over all says, &#8216;If you live<n id="1" /> and work according to my requirements, you will be able to preside over my temple<n id="2" /> and attend to my courtyards, and I will allow you to come and go among these others who are standing by you.

Next I eradicated the three shepherds in one month,<n id="1" /> for I ran out of patience with them and, indeed, they detested me as well.

&#8220;I am about to make Jerusalem<n id="1" /> a cup that brings dizziness<n id="2" /> to all the surrounding nations; indeed, Judah will also be included when Jerusalem is besieged.

Moreover, Judah will fight at<n id="1" /> Jerusalem, and the wealth of all the surrounding nations will be gathered up<n id="2" /> &#8211; gold, silver, and clothing in great abundance.
