1. O you who persist in lewdness, woe to you!
You have clothed your elder in a robe of shame.

2. Your son is a son-in-law to his own father,
And a brother may turn away from his own bitch in heat.

3. You do not preserve your father's honor in his wives,
Yet a dog guards jealously that which God has kept from his house.

4. You have revived a tradition which even the Magians condemned,
So exalt, like them, a house of fire!
