4. On that day you shall be mocked,and there will be bitter lament:“Our ruin is complete,our fields are divided among our captors,The fields of my people are measured out,and no one can get them back!”
5. Thus you shall have no onein the assembly of the Lordto allot to you a share of land.
6. “Do not preach,” they preach,“no one should preach of these things!Shame will not overtake us.”
7. How can it be said, house of Jacob,“Is the Lord short of patience;are these the Lord’s deeds?”Do not my words promise goodto the one who walks in justice?
8. But you rise up against my people as an enemy:you have stripped off the garment from the peaceful,From those who go their way in confidence,as though it were spoils of war.
