Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁴ Therefore, Declareth the Lord, Yahweh of hosts, The Mighty One of Israel,––Alas! I must appease me on mine adversaries, I must avenge me on mine enemies; ²⁵ That I may turn my hand against thee, And smelt away, as with potash, thy dross, And remove all thine alloy; ²⁶ That I may restore, thy Judges, as at the first, and, thy Counselors, as at the beginning,––After that, shalt thou be called, Righteous, citadel, Trusty, city,–– ²⁷ Zion, with justice, shall be redeemed,––And, her returning ones, with righteousness; ²⁸ And, the downfall of transgressors and sinners, shall be, together,––And, they who forsake Yahweh, shall be brought to an end;
