Israel’s Sins Are Condemned

How horrible it will be for those who invent trouble
and work out plans for disaster while in bed.
When the morning dawns, they carry out their plans
because they are able to.
They desire ⌞other people’s⌟ fields, so they seize them.
They desire ⌞people’s⌟ houses, so they take them.
They cheat a man and his family,
a man and his inheritance.

You won’t be able to rescue yourselves.
You will no longer be able to walk proudly.
This will be a time of disaster.
