3 And ye, come near hither, O sons of a sorceress, seed of an adulterer, Even thou dost commit whoredom.
And you draw near hither O children of a soothsayer offspring adulterous and she has played [the] prostitute.
4 Against whom do ye sport yourselves? Against whom enlarge ye the mouth? Prolong ye the tongue? Are not ye children of transgression? a false seed?
On whom? are you making fun on whom? do you make wide a mouth do you make long? a tongue ¿ not [are] you children of transgression of spring of deception.
5 Who are inflamed among oaks, under every green tree, Slaughtering the children in valleys, Under clefts of the rocks.

7 On a mountain, high and exalted, Thou hast set thy couch, Also thither thou hast gone up to make a sacrifice.
On a mountain high and lifted up you have set bed your also there you have gone up to sacrifice a sacrifice.
8 And behind the door, and the post, Thou hast set up thy memorial, For from Me thou hast removed, and goest up, Thou hast enlarged thy couch, And dost covenant for thyself among them, Thou hast loved their couch, the station thou sawest,
And behind the door and the doorpost you have set up memorial your for from with me you have uncovered and you have gone up you have made wide bed your and you have cut off for yourself from them you have loved bed their a hand you have seen.

10 In the greatness of thy way thou hast laboured, Thou hast not said, 'It is desperate.' The life of thy hand thou hast found, Therefore thou hast not been sick.
With [the] greatness of journey your you became weary not you said despairing [the] life of hand your you found there-fore not you became weak.
11 And of whom hast thou been afraid, and fearest, That thou liest, and Me hast not remembered? Thou hast not laid [it] to thy heart, Am not I silent, even from of old? And Me thou fearest not?
And whom? did you dread and did you fear? that you will lie and me not you remembered not you put [it] on heart your ¿ not [am] I silent and from long ago and me not you fear.

15 For thus said the high and exalted One, Inhabiting eternity, and holy [is] His name: 'In the high and holy place I dwell, And with the bruised and humble of spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of bruised ones,'
For thus he says [the] high [one] and [the] exalted [one] [the one who] dwells perpetuity and [is] holy name his a high place and a holy [place] I dwell and with a [person] contrite and a [person] lowly of spirit to restore [the] spirit of lowly [people] and to restore [the] heart of contrite [people].
16 For, not to the age do I strive, nor for ever am I wroth, For the spirit from before Me is feeble, And the souls I have made.
For not for ever I will conduct a case and not to perpetuity I will be angry for spirit from to before me it will grow faint and breaths [which] I I made.
17 For the iniquity of his dishonest gain, I have been wroth, and I smite him, Hiding — and am wroth, And he goeth on turning back in the way of his heart.

18 His ways I have seen, and I heal him, yea, I lead him, And recompense comforts to him and to his mourning ones.
Ways his I have seen and I will heal him and I will lead him and I may restore comfort to him and to mourners his.

20 And the wicked [are] as the driven out sea, For to rest it is not able, And its waters cast out filth and mire.
And the wicked [people] [are] like the sea tossed for to be quiet not it is able and they have tossed up waters its mire and mud.
21 There is no peace, said my God, to the wicked!
Not peace he says God my [belongs] to wicked [people].
