10 O my threshed ones* and the son of my threshing floor,*+ what I have heard from Jehovah of armies, the God* of Israel, I have reported to YOU people.

12 “I myself have told forth and have saved and have caused [it] to be heard,+ when there was among YOU no strange [god].*+ So YOU are my witnesses,”+ is the utterance of Jehovah, “and I am God.*+

9 To the city the very voice of Jehovah calls out,+ and [the person of] practical wisdom will fear your name.+ Hear [the] rod and who it was that designated it,*+ O YOU people.
