4:6 “But surely I gave 1 you no food to eat in any of your cities;
you lacked food everywhere you live. 2
Still you did not come back to me.”
The Lord is speaking!
4:9 “I destroyed your crops 3 with blight and disease.
Locusts kept 4 devouring your orchards, 5 vineyards, fig trees, and olive trees.
Still you did not come back to me.”
The Lord is speaking!
4:10 “I sent against you a plague like one of the Egyptian plagues. 6
I killed your young men with the sword,
along with the horses you had captured.
I made the stench from the corpses 7 rise up into your nostrils.
Still you did not come back to me.”
The Lord is speaking!
4:11 “I overthrew some of you the way God 8 overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. 9
You were like a burning stick 10 snatched from the flames.
Still you did not come back to me.”
The Lord is speaking!
