False Prophets

“Do not prophesy,” their prophets say.
    “Do not prophesy about these things;
    disgrace(A) will not overtake us.(B)
You descendants of Jacob, should it be said,
    “Does the Lord become[a] impatient?
    Does he do such things?”

“Do not my words do good(C)
    to the one whose ways are upright?(D)
Lately my people have risen up
    like an enemy.
You strip off the rich robe
    from those who pass by without a care,
    like men returning from battle.
