5:15 Hate what is wrong, love what is right!
Promote 1 justice at the city gate! 2
Maybe the Lord, the God who commands armies, will have mercy on 3 those who are left from 4 Joseph. 5
5:16 Because of Israel’s sins 6 this is what the Lord, the God who commands armies, the sovereign One, 7 says:
“In all the squares there will be wailing,
in all the streets they will mourn the dead. 8
They will tell the field workers 9 to lament
and the professional mourners 10 to wail.
