לַשָּׁוְא֙ הִכֵּ֣יתִי אֶת־בְּנֵיכֶ֔ם מוּסָ֖ר לֹ֣א לָקָ֑חוּ אָכְלָ֧ה חַרְבְּכֶ֛ם נְבִֽיאֵיכֶ֖ם כְּאַרְיֵ֥ה מַשְׁחִֽית׃

In vain have I smitten your children— They received no correction; Your sword hath devoured your prophets, Like a destroying lion.

In vain have I smitten For no purpose, for it did not avail that they should receive correction.
