New King James Version
14 Therefore you shall (A)give presents to [a]Moresheth Gath;
The houses of (B)Achzib[b] shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
15 I will yet bring an heir to you, O inhabitant of (C)Mareshah;[c]
The glory of Israel shall come to (D)Adullam.[d]

Because of your (F)precious children;
Enlarge your baldness like an eagle,
For they shall go from you into (G)captivity.
