11. They have treated lightlythe injury to the daughter of my people:“Peace, peace!” they say,though there is no peace.
12. They have acted shamefully; they have done abominable things,yet they are not at all ashamed,they do not know how to blush.Hence they shall be among those who fall;in their time of punishment they shall stumble,says the Lord.
13. I will gather them all in—oracle of the Lord:no grapes on the vine,No figs on the fig trees,foliage withered!Whatever I have given them is gone.
14. Why do we remain here?Let us assemble and flee to the fortified cities,where we will meet our doom;For the Lord our God has doomed us,he has given us poisoned water to drink,because we have sinned against the Lord.
15. We wait for peace to no avail;for a time of healing, but terror comes instead.
16. From Dan is heardthe snorting of horses;The neighing of stallionsshakes the whole land.They come to devour the land and everything in it,the city and its inhabitants.
