13 You who live in Lachish,(A)
    harness fast horses to the chariot.
You are where the sin of Daughter Zion(B) began,
    for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
14 Therefore you will give parting gifts(C)
    to Moresheth(D) Gath.
The town of Akzib[a](E) will prove deceptive(F)
    to the kings of Israel.
15 I will bring a conqueror against you
    who live in Mareshah.[b](G)
The nobles of Israel
    will flee to Adullam.(H)
