Woe to those calculating iniquity and workers of evil on their resting places. In the light of morning they do it, because to Elohim a hand exists.

And they desired fields and plundered, and houses and took, and oppressed a man and his house, and a person and his inheritance.

Therefore, thus says יהוה, 'Behold, I am calculating against this family evil, which from there your necks will not cease, and you will not walk haughtily, because it is a time of evil.'

On that day, a proverb will be raised against you, and a lament, a lament will be lamented. It will be said, 'Devastated, we are devastated.' He exchanges the portion of my people; how he exchanges for me! He returns our fields.

Therefore, there will not be for you one casting a rope by lot in the assembly of יהוה.

'Do not prophesy!' They prophesy. 'They will not prophesy for these.' Humiliation will not depart.

Is it said, 'House of Ya'aqov,' is the spirit of יהוה short? Or are these His deeds? Will not my words do good to the one walking uprightly?

And yesterday, my people rose up as an enemy. From opposite, a garment you strip off from passersby, with confidence returning from war.

The women of my people you drive out from the house of her delights. From upon her young children you take my splendor forever.

Arise and go, because this is not the resting place, because of defilement it will bring ruin, and ruin with fierce violence.

If a man walking in wind and falsehood lies, I will prophesy to you of wine and strong drink, and he will be the prophet of this people.

I will surely gather Ya'aqov, all of you. I will surely assemble the remnant of Yisra'el. I will place them together like sheep in Bozrah, like a flock in the midst of the pasture. They will make a loud noise because of mankind.

The one breaking through goes up before them. They break through and pass through the gate and go out by it. And their king passes before them, and יהוה at their head.
