8 Lately my people have risen up

like an enemy.

You strip off the rich robe

from those who pass by without a care,

like men returning from battle.

9 You drive the women of my people

from their pleasant homes.

You take away my blessing

from their children forever.

8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy:

Ye pull off the robe with the garment

From them that pass by securely as men averse from war.

9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses;

From their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.

8 Yet to this very hour

my people rise against me like an enemy!

You steal the shirts right off the backs

of those who trusted you,

making them as ragged as men

returning from battle.

9 You have evicted women from their pleasant homes

and forever stripped their children of all that God would give them.

8 “Lately My people have risen up as an enemy—

You pull off the robe with the garment

From those who trust you, as they pass by,

Like men returned from war.

9 The women of My people you cast out

From their pleasant houses;

From their children

You have taken away My glory forever.

8 But you are fighting against my people like an enemy.

You take the coats from people who pass by;

you rob them of their safety;

you plan war.

9 You’ve forced the women of my people

from their nice houses;

you’ve taken my glory

from their children forever.

8 But of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye strip the robe from off the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war. 9 The women of my people ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their young children ye take away my glory for ever.

8 But of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye strip off the mantle with the garment from them that pass by securely, that are averse from war. 9 The women of my people do ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their young children do ye take away my magnificence for ever.

8 Recently, my people have turned into enemies. 

You take coats from those who pass by without a care 

as they return from war. 

9 You force the women among my people out of their pleasant homes 

and take my glory away from their children forever. 

8 But recently My people have risen up

like an enemy:

You strip off the splendid robe

from those who are passing through confidently,

like those returning from war.

9 You force the women of My people

out of their comfortable homes,

and you take My blessing

from their children forever.

8 But you rise up against my people as an enemy;

you strip the robe from the peaceful,

from those who pass by trustingly

with no thought of war.

9 The women of my people you drive out

from their pleasant houses;

from their young children you take away

my glory forever.

8 But recently my people have risen up as an enemy;

from before the cloak you strip off the robe

from those passing by in confidence,

returning from war.

9 You have driven out the women of my people

from the houses of their pleasure.

From their children you have taken away

my glory forever.

8 But lately my people have attacked one another

as if they were enemies.

You strip the rich robes off

those who happen to pass by.

They thought they were as safe as men

returning from a battle they had won.

9 You drive the women among my people

out of their pleasant homes.

You take my blessing away

from their children forever.

8 “Recently My people have arisen as an enemy—

You strip the robe off the garment

From unsuspecting passers-by,

From those returned from war.

9 “The women of My people you evict,

Each one from her pleasant house.

From her children you take My splendor forever.
