The Lord ^(a)God has ^(A)sworn by Himself, the Lord God of hosts has declared:
“I ^(B)loathe the arrogance of Jacob,
And ^(b)detest his ^(C)citadels;
Therefore I will ^(D)deliver up the city and ^(c)all it contains.”

9} And it will be, if ^(E)ten men are left in one house, they will die. ^{Tools
10} Then one’s ^(d)uncle, or his ^(e)^(F)undertaker, will lift him up to carry out his bones from the house, and he will say to the one who is in the innermost part of the house, “Is anyone else with you?” And that one will say, “No one.” Then he will ^(f)answer, “^(G)Keep quiet. For ^(g)the name of the Lord is ^(H)not to be mentioned.”
