Watch out! It stands written before me:
    ‘I won’t keep silent, but I will pay back in full;
        I’ll indeed repay into[a] their laps
both your iniquities and your ancestors’[b] iniquities together,’’
    says the Lord.
“Because they offered incense on the mountains
    and insulted me on hills,[c]
I’ll measure into[d] their laps
    full payment for their earlier actions.”

    “Just as new wine is found in the cluster,
and people have said,[e] ‘Don’t destroy it,
    for there is a gift in it,’
so I’ll act for my servants’ sake,
    by not destroying them all.
