כַּ֫חַשׁ

You have shriveled me up. This is a witness against me. My leanness rises up against me. It testifies to my face.

For the sin of their mouth, and the words of their lips, let them be caught in their pride, for the curses and lies which they utter.

They make the king glad with their wickedness, and the princes with their lies.

You have plowed wickedness. You have reaped iniquity. You have eaten the fruit of lies, for you trusted in your way, in the multitude of your mighty men.

Ephraim surrounds me with falsehood, and the house of Israel with deceit. Judah still strays from God, and is unfaithful to the Holy One.

Woe to the bloody city! It is all full of lies and robbery. The prey doesn’t depart.
