    they will die.
¹⁰ One’s relative will pick up the corpse^[a]
    to carry them from the house for burning,^[b]
saying to whomever remains inside the house,
    ‘Is there anyone still with you?’
And he will say, ‘No.’
    He will respond, ‘Be quiet,
        because we do not mention the name “Lord”.’
¹¹ For indeed, the Lord is giving the command—
    and he will smash the large house to rubble
        and the small house into bits.

¹² “Horses don’t run over bare rock, do they?
    One doesn’t plow rock^[c] with oxen, does he?
But you have turned justice to gall,
    and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness.^[d]
13 You rejoice in nothing worth mentioning—
    that is, you keep on saying,
‘We captured Karnaim by our own strength of will
    and by our own effort, didn’t we?’

    declares the Lord, the God of the Heavenly Armies,
“and they will harass you from the entrance of Hamath
    to the wadi^[e] of the wilderness.”
