12 Do horses gallop on the cliffs?
Does anyone plow there with oxen?[a]
Yet you have turned justice into poison(A)
and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood(B)
13 you who rejoice over Lo-debar(C)
and say, “Didn’t we capture Karnaim
for ourselves by our own strength?” (D)
14 But look, I am raising up a nation
against you, house of Israel(E)
this is the declaration of the Lord,
the God of Armies—
and they will oppress you
from the entrance of Hamath[b](F)
to the Brook of the Arabah.[c]
