17 “Therefore thus says the Lord: ‘You have not obeyed Me in proclaiming liberty, every one to his brother and every one to his neighbor.

And I will deliver you to (F)trouble among all the kingdoms of the earth. 18 And I will give the men who have transgressed My covenant, who have not performed the words of the covenant which they made before Me, when (G)they cut the calf in two and passed between the parts of it—

15 Recently you repented and did what is right in my sight: Each of you proclaimed freedom to your own people.(A) You even made a covenant before me in the house that bears my Name.(B) 16 But now you have turned around(C) and profaned(D) my name; each of you has taken back the male and female slaves you had set free to go where they wished. You have forced them to become your slaves again.
17 “Therefore this is what the Lord says: You have not obeyed me; you have not proclaimed freedom to your own people. So I now proclaim ‘freedom’ for you,(E) declares the Lord—‘freedom’ to fall by the sword, plague(F) and famine.(G) I will make you abhorrent to all the kingdoms of the earth.(H) 18 Those who have violated my covenant(I) and have not fulfilled the terms of the covenant they made before me, I will treat like the calf they cut in two and then walked between its pieces.(J)

4 For thus says the Lord God:
“My people went down at first
Into (A)Egypt to [a]dwell there;
Then the Assyrian oppressed them without cause.

“That My people are taken away for nothing?
Those who rule over them
[b]Make them wail,” says the Lord,

6 Therefore My people shall know My name;
Therefore they shall know in that day
That I am He who speaks:
‘Behold, it is I.’ ”
