And Zedekiah son of Chenaanah maketh for himself horns of iron, and saith, 'Thus said Jehovah,

And now, lo, Jehovah hath put a spirit of falsehood in the mouth of all these thy prophets, and Jehovah hath spoken concerning thee -- evil.'

And Micaiah saith, 'Lo, thou art seeing on that day, when thou goest in to the innermost chamber to be hidden.'

The Lord Jehovah opened for me the ear, And I rebelled not -- backward I moved not.

My back I have given to those smiting, And my cheeks to those plucking out, My face I hid not from shame and spitting.

and Pashhur smiteth Jeremiah the prophet, and putteth him unto the stocks, that [are] by the high gate of Benjamin, that [is] by the house of Jehovah.

He giveth to his smiter the cheek, He is filled with reproach.

Now gather thyself together, O daughter of troops, A siege he hath laid against us, With a rod they smite on the cheek the judge of Israel.

Then did they spit in his face and buffet him, and others did slap,

and certain began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say to him, 'Prophesy;' and the officers were striking him with their palms.

And he having said these things, one of the officers standing by did give Jesus a slap, saying, 'Thus dost thou answer the chief priest?'

Jesus answered him, 'If I spake ill, testify concerning the ill; and if well, why me dost thou smite?'

and the chief priest Ananias commanded those standing by him to smite him on the mouth,

then Paul said unto him, 'God is about to smite thee, thou whitewashed wall, and thou -- thou dost sit judging me according to the law, and, violating law, dost order me to be smitten!'

Jehovah hath made thee priest instead of Jehoiada the priest, for there being inspectors of the house of Jehovah, for every one mad and making himself a prophet, and thou hast put him unto the torture and unto the stocks.

And now, why hast thou not pushed against Jeremiah of Anathoth, who is making himself a prophet to you?

Then did they spit in his face and buffet him, and others did slap,

saying, 'Declare to us, O Christ, who he is that struck thee?'

And those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and they said to him, 'Are we also blind?'

Jesus said to them, 'If ye were blind, ye were not having had sin, but now ye say -- We see, therefore doth your sin remain.
