1Woe to those who devise iniquity 2They covet fields and seize them, 3Therefore Yahweh says: 4In that day they will take up a parable against you, 5Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in Yahweh’s assembly. 6“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy— 7Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, 8But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. 9You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; 10Arise, and depart! 11If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, 12I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. 13He who breaks open the way goes up before them. 1Woe to those who devise iniquity 2They covet fields and seize them, 3Therefore Yahweh says: 4In that day they will take up a parable against you, 5Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in Yahweh’s assembly. 6“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy— 7Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, 8But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. 9You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; 10Arise, and depart! 11If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, 12I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. 13He who breaks open the way goes up before them. 1Woe to those who devise iniquity 2They covet fields and seize them, 3Therefore Yahweh says: 4In that day they will take up a parable against you, 5Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in Yahweh’s assembly. 6“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy— 7Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, 8But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. 9You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; 10Arise, and depart! 11If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, 12I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. 13He who breaks open the way goes up before them. 1Woe to those who devise iniquity 2They covet fields and seize them, 3Therefore Yahweh says: 4In that day they will take up a parable against you, 5Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in Yahweh’s assembly. 6“Don’t prophesy!”—they prophesy— 7Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, 8But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. 9You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; 10Arise, and depart! 11If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, 12I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. 13He who breaks open the way goes up before them.
