you strip the rich robe from those who pass by trustingly
    with no thought of war.[a]
The women of my people you drive out
    from their delightful houses;
from their young children you take away
    my splendor forever.
10 (B)Arise and go,
    for this is no (C)place to rest,
because of (D)uncleanness that destroys
    with a grievous destruction.
11 If a man should go about and (E)utter wind and lies,
    saying, “I will preach to you (F)of wine and strong drink,”
    he would be the preacher for this people!
