“They shall bring up
A mob
Against you.
They shall stone you.
They shall cut you
To pieces
With their swords.
They shall burn
Your houses.
They shall execute
Judgments on you
In the sight
Of many women.
I will stop you
From playing the whore.
You shall also make
No more payments.
So I will satisfy
My fury
On you.
My jealousy
Shall turn away
From you.
I will be calm.
I will be angry
No longer.”
Yahweh said that he was going to bring a mob against Jerusalem. They would follow the common practice of stoning an adulterous woman. They would cut her into pieces with their swords. They would burn down her houses. They were going to execute judgments on her in the sight of many women. Jerusalem would no longer play the whore. She would not give any gifts. Yahweh would satisfy this fury and jealousy. He would then become calm and not angry any longer.
