(A)who makes destruction flash forth against the strong,
    so that destruction comes upon the fortress.

10 (B)They hate him who reproves (C)in the gate,
    and they (D)abhor him who speaks the truth.
11 Therefore because you (E)trample on[a] the poor
    and you exact taxes of grain from him,
(F)you have built houses of hewn stone,
    but you shall not dwell in them;
(G)you have planted pleasant vineyards,
    but you shall not drink their wine.
