For you have forsaken your people, the house of Jacob,
    because they are filled from the east,
    with those who practice divination like the Philistines,
    and they clasp hands with the children of foreigners.
Their land is full of silver and gold,
    neither is there any end of their treasures.
Their land also is full of horses,
    neither is there any end of their chariots.
Their land also is full of idols.
    They worship the work of their own hands,
    that which their own fingers have made.
Man is brought low,
    and mankind is humbled;
    therefore don’t forgive them.

The Day of the Lord

You, Lord, have abandoned(A) your people,
    the descendants of Jacob.(B)
They are full of superstitions from the East;
    they practice divination(C) like the Philistines(D)
    and embrace(E) pagan customs.(F)
Their land is full of silver and gold;(G)
    there is no end to their treasures.(H)
Their land is full of horses;(I)
    there is no end to their chariots.(J)
Their land is full of idols;(K)
    they bow down(L) to the work of their hands,(M)
    to what their fingers(N) have made.
So people will be brought low(O)
    and everyone humbled(P)
    do not forgive them.[a](Q)
