28  Because you have raged against me

and your complacency has come into my ears,

I will put my ^uhook in your nose

and my bit in your mouth,

and I will turn you back on the way

by which you came.

29  Because you have raged against me

and your complacency has come to my ears,

I will put my ^jhook in your nose

and my bit in your mouth,

and I will turn you back on the way

by which you came.’

4  The nations heard about him;

he was caught in their pit,

and they brought him with hooks

^wto the land of Egypt.

9  With hooks they put him in a cage¹

and brought him to the king of Babylon;

they brought him into custody,

that his voice should no more be heard

on the mountains of Israel.

4  I will put ^dhooks in your jaws,

and make the fish of your streams stick to your scales;

and I will draw you up out of the midst of your streams,

with all the fish of your streams

that stick to your scales.

2  The Lord God has sworn ^wby his holiness

that, behold, the days are coming upon you,

when they shall take you away with hooks,

even the last of you with ^xfishhooks.
