Plow your unplowed fields,
    and don’t plant among thorns.
⁴ Be circumcised by Yahweh,
    and get rid of the foreskins of your hearts,
        people of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem.
    If you don’t, my fury will flare up like a fire.
    It will burn, and no one will be able to put it out,
        because of the evil you do.

⁵ Report this message in Judah.
    Make it heard in Jerusalem.
    Say, “Blow the ram’s horn throughout the land.”
        Shout loudly and say, “Gather together!
            Let’s go into the fortified cities.”
