9  ^vIf the Lord of hosts

had not left us ^wa few survivors,

we should have been like ^xSodom,

and become like ^xGomorrah.

10  Hear the word of the Lord,

you rulers of ^yzSodom!

Give ear to the teaching¹ of our God,

you people of ^zGomorrah!

9  For the look on their faces bears witness against them;

they proclaim their sin ^blike Sodom;

they do not hide it.

Woe to them!

^cFor they have brought evil on themselves.
