“ How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I treat you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboyim? My heart is changed within me; all my compassion is aroused.

The Lord continues,“ People of Ephraim, how can I give you up? Israel, how can I hand you over to your enemies? Can I destroy you as I did the town of Admah? Can I treat you like Zeboyim? My heart is stirred inside me. It is filled with pity for you.

“耶路撒冷啊，耶路撒冷！这城杀害先知们，又用石头砸死被差到她这里的人！我多次想聚集你的儿女，像母鸡把自己的小鸡聚集在翅膀下，可是你们不愿意！

于是所多玛王、格摩拉王、押玛王、洗扁王和比拉王，就是琐珥王都出来，在西订谷摆阵与他们作战，

既然神又定了所多玛和格摩拉的罪，把这二城倾覆，烧成灰烬，做为以后不敬神之人的鉴戒；

同样，所多玛、格摩拉及其周围的城市，照着他们的样子放纵行淫，随从变态的肉欲，就遭受永火的刑罚，成为我们的鉴戒。

那时，耶和华就使硫磺与火从天而降，从耶和华那里降在所多玛和格摩拉，使那些城和整个平原，连同各城所有的居民和地上生长的都遭覆灭。

耶稣快到耶路撒冷的时候，看见那城，就为她哭泣，说：“巴不得你在这日子里明白关乎你和平的事，但如今这事在你眼前被隐藏了。

为他们的缘故，记念自己的约，照着他丰盛的慈爱回心转意；

他们的尸体会被抛在大城的街道上。这大城按属灵的意思叫做所多玛，又叫做埃及，也就是他们的主被钉十字架的地方。

求你从天上垂看，从你圣洁、荣耀的崇高居所观看！你的热心和你的大能在哪里呢？你内心的激情和你的怜悯向我们止住了。

要不是万军之耶和华给我们留下了一些幸存者，我们早就变得像所多玛、格摩拉那样了！所多玛的统领们哪，要听耶和华的话语！格摩拉的百姓啊，要倾听我们神的训诲！

他们看着焚烧她时的烟，呼喊说：“哪一个城能与这大城相比呢？”
