⁴ I will ^(A)put hooks in your jaws,
    and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales;
and I will draw you up out of the midst of your streams,
    with all the fish of your streams
    that stick to your scales.

²⁸ Because you have raged against me
    and your complacency has come into my ears,
I will ^(A)put my hook in your nose
    and my bit in your mouth,
and ^(B)I will turn you back on the way
    by which you came.

¹⁴ You make mankind like the fish of the sea,
    like crawling things that have no ruler.
^15 (A)He^[a] brings all of them up ^(B)with a hook;
    he drags them out with his net;
he gathers them in his dragnet;
    so he rejoices and is glad.

^2 (A)The Lord God has sworn by his holiness
    that, behold, the days are coming upon you,
^(B)when they shall take you away with hooks,
    ^(C)even the last of you with fishhooks.

^29 (A)Because you have raged against me
    and your complacency has come to my ears,
I will put my hook in your nose
    and my bit in your mouth,
and ^(B)I will turn you back on the way
    by which you came.’
