“Do you think I sent my people away
    like a man who divorces his wife?
    Where, then, are the papers of divorce?
Do you think I sold you into captivity
    like a man who sells his children as slaves?
No, you went away captive because of your sins;
    you were sent away because of your crimes.

¹¹ All of you that plot to destroy others
    will be destroyed by your own plots.
The Lord himself will make this happen;
    you will suffer a miserable fate.
