עַל־כֵּן֩ הִכָּ֨ם אַרְיֵ֜ה מִיַּ֗עַר זְאֵ֤ב עֲרָבוֹת֙ יְשָׁדְדֵ֔ם נָמֵ֤ר שֹׁקֵד֙ עַל־עָ֣רֵיהֶ֔ם כָּל־הַיּוֹצֵ֥א מֵהֵ֖נָּה יִטָּרֵ֑ף כִּ֤י רַבּוּ֙ פִּשְׁעֵיהֶ֔ם עָצְמ֖וּ משבותיהם [מְשׁוּבוֹתֵיהֶֽם׃]
Karena itu singa dari hutan akan menyerang mereka, serigala padang gurun akan membinasakan mereka, macan tutul mengintai kota-kota mereka; setiap orang yang keluar dari sana akan diterkam, sebab pelanggaran mereka banyak dan penyelewengan mereka makin kuat.
