9 The voice of the Lord will call to the city—

And it is sound wisdom to fear Your name:

“Hear, O tribe. Who has appointed 1its time?

10 “Is there yet a man in the wicked house,

Along with treasures of awickedness

And a 1bshort measure that is cursed?

11 “Can I justify wicked ascales

And a bag of deceptive weights?

12 “For the rich men of the 1city are full of aviolence,

Her residents speak blies,

And their ctongue is deceitful in their mouth.

13 “So also I will make you asick, striking you down,

bDesolating you because of your sins.

14 “You will eat, but you will anot be satisfied,

And your 1vileness will be in your midst.

You will try to remove for safekeeping,

But you will bnot preserve anything,

And what you do preserve I will give to the sword.

15 “You will sow but you will anot reap.

You will tread the olive but will not anoint yourself with oil;

And the grapes, but you will bnot drink wine.

16 “The statutes of aOmri

And all the works of the house of bAhab are observed;

And in their devices you cwalk.

Therefore I will give you up for ddestruction

And 1your inhabitants for ederision,

And you will bear the freproach of My people.”
