³ “But come here, you sons of a ^(A)sorceress,
^(B)Offspring of an adulterer and ^[a]a ^(C)prostitute!
⁴ Of whom do you make fun?
Against whom do you open wide your mouth
And stick out your tongue?
Are you not children of ^(D)rebellion,
Offspring of deceit,
⁵ Who inflame yourselves among the ^(E)oaks,
^(F)Under every luxuriant tree,
Who ^(G)slaughter the children in the ^[b]ravines,
Under the clefts of the rocks?
⁶ Among the ^[c](H)smooth stones of the ^[d]ravine
Is your portion, ^[e]they are your lot;
Even to them you have ^(I)poured out a drink offering,
You have made a grain offering.
Should I ^[f](J)relent of these things?
⁷ On a ^(K)high and lofty mountain
You have ^(L)made your bed.
You also went up there to offer sacrifice.
⁸ Behind the door and the doorpost
You have set up your sign;
Indeed, far removed from Me, you have ^(M)uncovered yourself,
And have gone up and made your bed wide.
And you have made an agreement for yourself with them,
You have loved their bed,
You have looked at their ^[g]manhood.
⁹ You have journeyed to the king with oil
And increased your perfumes;
You have ^(N)sent your messengers a great distance
And made them go down to ^[h]Sheol.
¹⁰ You were tired out by the length of your road,
Yet you did not say, ‘^(O)It is hopeless!’
You found ^[i]renewed strength,
Therefore you did not ^[j]faint.
