1WoeH1945 to those who 1deviseH2803 wrongdoingH205, Who practiceH6466 evilH7451 on their bedsH4904! 23When morningH1242 comes, they doH6213 it, BecauseH3588 it is in the 4powerH410 of their handsH3027.2They 5covetH2530 fieldsH7704, so they 6seizeH1497 them; And housesH1004, so they takeH5375 them. They 78exploitH6231 a manH1397 and his houseH1004, A personH376 and his inheritanceH5159. 3ThereforeH3651 thisH3541 isH3541 whatH3541 the LordH3068 saysH559: “BeholdH2009, I am 9planningH2803 againstH5921 thisH2088 10familyH4940 a catastropheH7463 From whichH834 you 11cannotH3808 removeH4185 your necksH6677; And you will not walkH1980 12haughtilyH7317, For it will be an 13evilH7463 timeH6256.4On that dayH3117 they will 14takeH5375 upH5375 againstH5921 you a 15songH4912 ofH4912 mockingH4912 And 1617utterH5091 a songH5092 ofH7015 mourningH7015 and sayH559, ‘We are completelyH7703 18destroyedH7703! He exchangesH4171 the shareH2506 of my peopleH5971; HowH349 He removesH4185 it from me! To the apostateH7728 He 19apportionsH2505 our fieldsH7704.’5ThereforeH3651 you will haveH1961 noH3808 one 2021applyingH7993 a measuringH2256 lineH2256 For you by lotH1486 in the assemblyH6951 of the LordH3068.
