    his chariots(B) come like a whirlwind,(C)
his horses(D) are swifter than eagles.(E)
    Woe to us! We are ruined!(F)
14 Jerusalem, wash(G) the evil from your heart and be saved.(H)

    proclaiming disaster from the hills of Ephraim.(K)
16 “Tell this to the nations,
    proclaim concerning Jerusalem:
‘A besieging army is coming from a distant land,(L)
    raising a war cry(M) against the cities of Judah.(N)
17 They surround(O) her like men guarding a field,
    because she has rebelled(P) against me,’”
declares the Lord.
