“Look, it is written here before me.
    I will not ·be quiet [keep silent]; instead, I will repay you in full.
    I will ·punish you for what you have done [L pay it back into their laps/bosom].
I will punish you for your sins and your ·ancestors’ [fathers’] sins,”
    says the Lord.
“They burned incense ·to gods on [L on] the mountains
    and ·shamed [insulted; defied] me on those hills.
So I will ·punish them as they should be punished
    for what they did [L measure into their laps/bosoms payment for their former deeds].”

This is what the Lord says:
“When there is ·juice left [new wine; or good grapes] in a bunch of grapes,
    people say, “Don’t destroy it,
    because there is ·good left [L blessing] in it.”
So I will do the same thing to my servants—
    I will not destroy them all.
