1:3 Dominus patiens et magnus fortitudine et mundans non faciet innocentem Dominus in tempestate et turbine viae eius et nebulae pulvis pedum eius	1:3.

1:9 quid cogitatis contra Dominum consummationem ipse faciet non consurget duplex tribulatio	1:9. What do ye devise against the Lord? he will make an utter end: there shall not rise a double affliction.
1:10 quia sicut spinae se invicem conplectuntur sic convivium eorum pariter potantium consumentur quasi stipula ariditate plena	1:10. For as thorns embrace one another: so while they are feasting and drinking together, they shall be consumed as stubble that is fully dry.
1:11 ex te exivit cogitans contra Dominum malitiam mente pertractans praevaricationem	1:11. Out of thee shall come forth one that imagineth evil against the Lord, contriving treachery in his mind.
1:12 haec dicit Dominus si perfecti fuerint et ita plures sic quoque adtondentur et pertransibit adflixi te et non adfligam te ultra	1:12. Thus saith the Lord: Though they were perfect: and many of them so, yet thus shall they be cut off, and he shall pass: I have afflicted thee, and I will afflict thee no more.

Behold upon the mountains the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, and that preacheth peace: O Juda, keep thy festivals, and pay thy vows: for Belial shall no more pass through thee again, he is utterly cut off.
