1 Woe to those who dream up wickednessand prepare evil plans on their beds!At morning light they accomplish itbecause the power is in their hands.
2 They covet fields and seize them; they also take houses.They deprive a man of his home, a person of his inheritance.
3 Therefore, the Lord says:I am now planning a disasteragainst this nation; you cannot free your necks from it. Then you will not walk so proudly because it will be an evil time.
4 In that day one will take up a taunt against you,and lament mournfully, saying,“We are totally ruined! He measures out the allotted land of my people.How He removes it from me!He allots our fields to traitors.”
