9 The Lord’s voice calls to the city,and wisdom sees your name:“Listen to the rod,and he who appointed it.
10 Are there yet treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked,and a short efah that is accursed?
11 Shall I be pure with dishonest scales,and with a bag of deceitful weights?
12 Her rich men are full of violence,her inhabitants speak lies,and their tongue is deceitful in their speech.
13 Therefore I also have struck you with a grievous wound.I have made you desolate because of your sins.
14 You shall eat, but not be satisfied.Your humiliation will be within you.You will store up, but not save;and that which you save I will give up to the sword.
15 You will sow, but won’t reap.You will tread the olives, but won’t anoint yourself with oil;and crush grapes, but won’t drink the wine.
