Thus saith the Lord GOD; Smite with thine hand, and stamp with thy foot, and say, Alas for all the evil abominations of the house of Israel! for they shall fall by the sword, by the famine, and by the pestilence.
Ver. 11. Thus saith the Lord God.] Sic ait Dominator Dominus.
Smite with thine hand.] Manibus pedibusque obnixe omnia facito; do thine utmost by gestures and speeches to make this stupid people perceive their sin and danger.
Alas for all the evil abominations.] Propter omnes abominationes pessimas; a we cannot call sin bad enough; the worst word in a man's belly is too good for it. O perdita Israel, dicere vult, quae tot malas abominationes operata es, &c.
