“I also (A)withheld the rain from you
    when there were yet three months to the harvest;
(B)I would send rain on one city,
    and send no rain on another city;
one field would have rain,
    and the field on which it did not rain would wither;
so two or three cities (C)would wander to another city
    to drink water, and would not be satisfied;
(D)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.

(E)“I struck you with blight and mildew;
    your many gardens and your vineyards,
    your fig trees and your olive trees (F)the locust devoured;
(G)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.

10 “I sent among you a pestilence (H)after the manner of Egypt;
    I killed your young men with the sword,
and (I)carried away your horses,[a]
    and (J)I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;
(K)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.

11 “I overthrew some of you,
    (L)as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
    and you were (M)as a brand[b] plucked out of the burning;
(N)yet you did not return to me,”
declares the Lord.

12 “Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;
    because I will do this to you,
    prepare to meet your God, O Israel!”
