In mine ears saith Jehovah of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.

I heard the LORD of Hosts declare: “Surely many houses will become desolate, great mansions left unoccupied.

By the weapons of Jehovah of Hosts Do not many houses a desolation become? Great and good without inhabitant!

In mine ears Jehovah of hosts [hath said], Many houses shall assuredly become a desolation, great and excellent ones, without inhabitant.
