6 for a fool speaks folly, and his heart works wickedness: to practise filthiness, and to speak against יהוה that which misleads, to starve the being of the hungry, and to withhold the drink from the thirsty.
7 And the methods of the scoundrel are evil – he has devised wicked plans to destroy the poor with words of falsehood, even when the needy pleads for right-ruling.
8 But the generous one devises what is generous, and by generous deeds he rises up.
9 Rise up, you women who are at ease, hear my voice; rise up you complacent daughters, listen to my speech.
10 In little more than a year you shall be troubled, you complacent women; for the grape harvest shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
11 Tremble, you women who are at ease; be troubled, you complacent ones; strip yourselves, make yourselves bare, and gird sackcloth on your waists.
12 Lament upon the breasts for the pleasant fields, for the fruit-bearing vine.
