O (A)mountain of Mine in the countryside,
I will (B)give over your wealth and all your treasures for booty,
Your high places for sin throughout your borders.
And you will, even of yourself, (C)let go of your inheritance
That I gave you;
And I will make you serve your (D)enemies
In the (E)land which you do not know;
For you have (F)kindled a fire in My anger
Which will burn forever.

Thus says the Lord,
(G)Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes (H)flesh his [a]strength,
And whose heart turns away from the Lord.
