8 Because you have plundered many nations,all the remnant of the people will plunder you,because of the bloodshed of men and violence of the land,of the cities and all who live in them.
9 “Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,to set his nest on high,to be delivered from the power of calamity!”
10 You have given shameful counsel to your houseby cutting off many peoples,and forfeiting your life.
11 For the stone will cry out from the wall,and the beam of the woodwork will answer it.
12 “Woe to him who builds a town with bloodshedand establishes a city on iniquity!”
13 Is it not from the Lord of Hoststhat the people labor to feed fire,and the nations weary themselves for nothing?
14 For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord,as the waters cover the seas.
