New International Version (NIV)

13You who live in Lachish,

harness fast horses to the chariot.

You are where the sin of Daughter Zion began,

for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.

13Harness the chariot to the team of horses,

You inhabitant of Lachish—

She was the beginning of sin

To the daughter of Zion—

Because in you were found

The rebellious acts of Israel.

13Harness the chariot to the team of horses,

O inhabitant of Lachish—

She was the beginning of sin

To the daughter of Zion—

Because in you were found

The rebellious acts of Israel.

13Harness the chariot to the team of horses [to escape the invasion],

O inhabitant of Lachish—

She was the beginning of sin

To the Daughter of Zion (Jerusalem)—

Because in you were found

The rebellious acts of Israel.

13Harness your chariot horses,

O dweller of Lachish.1:13 Lachish sounds like the Hebrew term for team of horses.

You were the beginning of sin to the Daughter of Zion,

for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.

13You who live in Lachish,

get your fast horses ready to pull their chariots.

You trust in military power.

Lachish was where sin began

for the people of Zion.

The wrong things Israel did

were also done by you.
