For thus says the Lord to the house of the king of Judah:

“You are (A)Gilead to Me,
The head of Lebanon;
Yet I surely will make you a wilderness,
Cities which are not inhabited.
I will prepare destroyers against you,
Everyone with his weapons;
They shall cut down (B)your choice cedars
(C)And cast them into the fire.

“Though you are like Gilead(A) to me,
    like the summit of Lebanon,(B)
I will surely make you like a wasteland,(C)
    like towns not inhabited.
I will send destroyers(D) against you,
    each man with his weapons,
and they will cut(E) up your fine cedar beams
    and throw them into the fire.(F)
