לֹא ט֞וֹב הַ/דָּבָ֣ר הַ/זֶּה֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר עָשִׂיתָ֒ חַי יְהוָ֗ה כִּ֤י בְנֵי מָ֨וֶת֙ אַתֶּ֔ם אֲשֶׁ֧ר לֹֽא שְׁמַרְתֶּ֛ם עַל אֲדֹנֵי/כֶ֖ם עַל מְשִׁ֣יחַ יְהוָ֑ה וְ/עַתָּ֣ה רְאֵ֗ה אֵֽי חֲנִ֥ית הַ/מֶּ֛לֶךְ וְ/אֶת צַפַּ֥חַת הַ/מַּ֖יִם אֲשֶׁ֥ר מראשת/ו מְרַאֲשֹׁתָֽי/ו
English Translation
It is not good, this thing that you have done; as the Lord lives, you are sons of death because you have not kept the command of your lord concerning the anointed of the Lord. And now, see where the king’s spear is and the jug of water that was at his head.
