כִּֽי־עַ֭תָּה הֱיִ֣יתֶם לא [ל֑וֹ] תִּֽרְא֥וּ חֲ֝תַ֗ת וַתִּירָֽאוּ׃
Sapagkat ngayon ay naging tulad niyon kayo; nakita ninyo ang kapahamakan, at kayo'y natakot.
Rashi
For now you are like it You are compared to that stream
Rashi
you fear ruin The fear of the plague, and you are afraid to say the truth, thereby flattering my opponent.
