56. Jerusalem, you were so arrogant that you sneered at Sodom.
57. But now everyone has learnt how wicked you really are. The countries of Syria and Philistia, as well as your other neighbours, hate you and make insulting remarks.
58. You must pay for all the vulgar and disgusting things you have done. I, the Lord, have spoken.
59. Jerusalem, you deserve to be punished, because you broke your promises and ignored our agreement.
60. But I remember the agreement I made with you when you were young, and so I will make you a promise that will last for ever.
