17 ‘All hands go limp, and all knees become as water.
18 ‘And they shall gird on sackcloth, and be covered with trembling. And shame shall be on every face, and baldness on all their heads.
19 ‘They throw their silver into the streets, and their gold becomes as filth. Their silver and their gold is unable to deliver them in the day of the wrath of יהוה. They do not satisfy their appetite, nor fill their stomachs, because it has been their stumbling-block of crookedness.

22 ‘And I shall turn My face from them. And they shall profane My secret place, for destroyers shall enter it and profane it.
