10 “I sent a (A)plague among you [a]as in Egypt;
I (B)killed your young men with the sword, along with your (C)captured horses,
And I made the (D)stench of your camp rise up in your nostrils;
Yet you have (E)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
11 “I overthrew you, as (F)God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
And you were like a (G)log snatched from a fire;
Yet you have (H)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
12 “Therefore so I will do to you, Israel;
Because I will do this to you,
Prepare to (I)meet your God, Israel.”
