Who (C)swear by the name of Yahweh
And bring to remembrance the God of Israel,
But not in truth or in (D)righteousness.
For they call themselves after the (E)holy city
And (F)are supported by the God of Israel;

And they went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to be heard.
(H)Suddenly I acted, and they (I)came to pass.

you who call yourselves citizens of the holy city(G)
    and claim to rely(H) on the God of Israel—

    my mouth announced(K) them and I made them known;
    then suddenly(L) I acted, and they came to pass.
