11 Thus I will (A)punish the world for its evil
And the (B)wicked for their iniquity;

  1. Isaiah 13:11 Or tyrants, despots

12 Therefore thus says the Holy One of Israel,

(A)Since you have rejected this word
And have put your trust in (B)oppression and deviousness and have relied on them,
13 Therefore this (C)iniquity will be to you
Like a (D)breach about to fall,
A bulge in a high wall,
Whose breaking comes (E)suddenly in an instant,
14 Whose breaking is like the breaking of a (F)potter’s jar,
[a]So ruthlessly shattered
That a potsherd will not be found among its pieces
To [b]take fire from a hearth
Or to scoop water from a cistern.”

Behold, it is written before Me:
I will (A)not keep silent, but (B)I will repay;
I will even repay into their bosom,
Both [a]their own (C)iniquities and the iniquities of their fathers together,” says Yahweh.
“Because they have (D)burned incense on the mountains
And (E)reproached Me on the hills,
Therefore I will (F)measure their former work into their bosom.”
