Punishment for the Women of Jerusalem
9 Listen to what I say,
you women who are carefree
and careless!
10 You may not have worries now,
but in about a year,
the grape harvest will fail,
and you will tremble.
11 Shake and shudder,
you women without a care!
Strip off your clothes—
put on sackcloth.

The Women of Jerusalem
9 You women(A) who are so complacent,
rise up and listen(B) to me;
you daughters who feel secure,(C)
hear what I have to say!
10 In little more than a year(D)
you who feel secure will tremble;
the grape harvest will fail,(E)
and the harvest of fruit will not come.
11 Tremble,(F) you complacent women;
shudder, you daughters who feel secure!(G)
Strip off your fine clothes(H)
and wrap yourselves in rags.(I)

Consequences of Complacency
9 Rise up, you women (A)who are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech.
10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.

Be troubled, you complacent ones;
Strip yourselves, make yourselves bare,
And gird sackcloth on your waists.
