to whom the house of Israel comes!
2 Pass over to (E)Calneh, and see,
and from there go to (F)Hamath the great;
then go down to (G)Gath of the Philistines.
(H)Are you better than these kingdoms?
Or is their territory greater than your territory,
3 (I)O you who put far away the day of disaster
(J)and bring near the seat of violence?

(M)and stretch themselves out on their couches,
and eat lambs from the flock
(N)and calves from the midst of the stall,

and like David (P)invent for themselves instruments of music,
6 (Q)who drink wine in bowls
and (R)anoint themselves with the finest oils,
but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!
7 (S)Therefore they shall now be the first of those who go into exile,
and the revelry of those who stretch themselves out shall pass away.”

(E)“An adversary shall surround the land
and bring down[a] your defenses from you,
and (F)your strongholds shall be plundered.”

and (Q)the houses of ivory shall perish,
and the great houses[c] shall come to an end,”
