CAB(i)
26 Have you not heard of these things which I did of old? I appointed them from ancient times; but now have I manifested My purpose of desolating nations in their strongholds, and them that dwell in strong cities.
27 I weakened their hands, and they withered; and they became as dry grass on the housetops, and as grass.
28 But now I know your dwelling place, and your going out, and your coming in.
29 And your wrath in which you have been enraged, and your rage has come up before Me; therefore I will put a hook in your nose, and a bit in your lips, and I will turn you back by the way which you came.
