8 - 'ach chaH 'oH tay' brutish je foolish: the instruction vo' idols! 'oH ghaH 'ach a stock.

9 - pa' ghaH baS chIS beaten Daq plates, nuq ghaH qempu' vo' Tarshish, je SuD baS vo' Uphaz, the vum vo' the artificer je vo' the ghopmey vo' the goldsmith; blue je purple vaD chaj Sut; chaH 'oH Hoch the vum vo' skillful loDpu'.

17 - tay'moH Dung lIj wares pa' vo' the puH, SoH 'Iv abide Daq the siege.

18 - vaD thus jatlhtaH joH'a', yIlegh, jIH DichDaq sling pa' the nganpu' vo' the puH Daq vam poH, je DichDaq distress chaH, vetlh chaH may feel 'oH.

19 - Woe ghaH jIH because vo' wIj hurt! wIj wound ghaH grievous: 'ach jIH ja'ta', Truly vam ghaH wIj grief, je jIH must SIQ 'oH.

22 - The ghogh vo' news, yIlegh, 'oH choltaH, je a Dun commotion pa' vo' the pemHov nIH Hatlh, Daq chenmoH the vengmey vo' Judah a desolation, a dwelling Daq vo' jackals.

23 - joH'a', jIH Sov vetlh the way vo' loD ghaH ghobe' Daq himself: 'oH ghaH ghobe' Daq loD 'Iv yIttaH Daq direct Daj steps.

24 - joH'a', lugh jIH, 'ach Daq juv: ghobe' Daq lIj QeH, lest SoH qem jIH Daq pagh.
