4 When that happens,this sorrowful songwill be sung about you:“Ruined! Completely ruined!The Lord has taken our landand given it to traitors.”
5 And so you will never againown propertyamong the Lord's people.
6 “Enough of your preaching!”That's what you tell me.“We won't be disgraced,so stop preaching!”
7 Descendants of Jacob,is it right for you to claimthat the Lord did what he didbecause he was angry?Doesn't he always blessthose who do right?
8 My people, you have turned againstone another!You have even stolenclothes right off the backsof innocent neighborswho pass by in peace.
9 You take over lovely homesthat belong to the womenof my nation.Then you cheat their childrenout of the inheritancethat comes from the Lord.
10 Get out of here, you crooks!You'll find no rest here.You're not fit to belongto the Lord's people,and you will be destroyed.
