לָכֵן הִנֵּֽה־יָמִים בָּאִים נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה וְלֹא־יִקָּרֵא לַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה עוֹד הַתֹּפֶת וְגֵיא בֶן־הִנֹּם כִּי אִם־גֵּיא הַהֲרֵגָֽה׃
therefore, behold, days are coming, says the Lord, when this place shall no more be called Tofet, nor The valley of Ben-hinnom, but The valley of Slaughter.

וּבַקֹּתִי אֶת־עֲצַת יְהוּדָה וִירוּשָׁלַ͏ִם בַּמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה וְהִפַּלְתִּים בַּחֶרֶב לִפְנֵי אֹֽיְבֵיהֶם וּבְיַד מְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשָׁם וְנָתַתִּי אֶת־נִבְלָתָם לְמַֽאֲכָל לְעוֹף הַשָּׁמַיִם וּלְבֶהֱמַת הָאָֽרֶץ׃
And I will make void the counsel of Yehuda and Yerushalayim in this place; and I will cause them to fall by the sword before their enemies, and by the hands of them that seek their lives: and their carcasses will I give to be food for the birds of the sky, and for the beasts of the earth.

וְשַׂמְתִּי אֶת־הָעִיר הַזֹּאת לְשַׁמָּה וְלִשְׁרֵקָה כֹּל עֹבֵר עָלֶיהָ יִשֹּׁם וְיִשְׁרֹק עַל־כׇּל־מַכֹּתֶֽהָ׃
And I will make this city desolate, and a hissing; every one that passes by it shall be astonished and hiss because of all its disasters.

וְהַאֲכַלְתִּים אֶת־בְּשַׂר בְּנֵיהֶם וְאֵת בְּשַׂר בְּנֹתֵיהֶם וְאִישׁ בְּשַׂר־רֵעֵהוּ יֹאכֵלוּ בְּמָצוֹר וּבְמָצוֹק אֲשֶׁר יָצִיקוּ לָהֶם אֹיְבֵיהֶם וּמְבַקְשֵׁי נַפְשָֽׁם׃
And I will cause them to eat the flesh of their sons and the flesh of their daughters, and they shall eat every one the flesh of his friend, in the siege and in the distress, with which their enemies, and they that seek their lives, shall afflict them.

ובמצוק. לשון צרה כמו צוקה:
וְשָׁבַרְתָּ הַבַּקְבֻּק לְעֵינֵי הָאֲנָשִׁים הַהֹלְכִים אוֹתָֽךְ׃
Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with thee,

וְאָמַרְתָּ אֲלֵיהֶם כֹּה־אָמַר ׀ יְהֹוָה צְבָאוֹת כָּכָה אֶשְׁבֹּר אֶת־הָעָם הַזֶּה וְאֶת־הָעִיר הַזֹּאת כַּאֲשֶׁר יִשְׁבֹּר אֶת־כְּלִי הַיּוֹצֵר אֲשֶׁר לֹא־יוּכַל לְהֵרָפֵה עוֹד וּבְתֹפֶת יִקְבְּרוּ מֵאֵין מָקוֹם לִקְבּֽוֹר׃
And shalt say to them, Thus says the Lord of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as one breaks a potter’s vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury them in Tofet, till there be no place to bury.

(אשר לא יוכל להרפה. אהעם קאי אבל העיר אעש' כתופת ואטהר לעתיד):
כֵּֽן־אֶעֱשֶׂה לַמָּקוֹם הַזֶּה נְאֻם־יְהֹוָה וּלְיֽוֹשְׁבָיו וְלָתֵת אֶת־הָעִיר הַזֹּאת כְּתֹֽפֶת׃
Thus will I do to this place, says the Lord, and to its inhabitants, and make this city as Tofet:

העיר הזאת כתופת. כולה מליאה הרוגים כמו התופת שהורגין שם את הילדים למולך:
וְהָיוּ בָּתֵּי יְרוּשָׁלַ͏ִם וּבָתֵּי מַלְכֵי יְהוּדָה כִּמְקוֹם הַתֹּפֶת הַטְּמֵאִים לְכֹל הַבָּתִּים אֲשֶׁר קִטְּרוּ עַל־גַּגֹּֽתֵיהֶם לְכֹל צְבָא הַשָּׁמַיִם וְהַסֵּךְ נְסָכִים לֵאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִֽים׃ {פ}
and the houses of Yerushalayim, and the houses of the kings of Yehuda, shall be defiled as the place of the Tofet, with all the houses upon the roofs of which they have burned incense to all the host of heaven, and have poured out drink offerings to other gods.
