  2. 2 And leaving husbandry, They will follow after their own wicked devices, And they shall be dispersed among the Gentiles. And shall serve their enemies.
  3. 3 And do you therefore give these commands to your children, that, if they sin, they may the more
  4. 4 quickly return to the Lord; For He is merciful, and will deliver them, even to bring them back into their land.
