“Do not preach”—thus they preach—
    “one should not preach of such things;
    disgrace will not overtake us.”
Should this be said, O house of Jacob?
    Is the Lord’s patience exhausted?
    Are these his doings?
Do not my words do good
    to one who walks uprightly?
But you rise up against my people[a] as an enemy;
    you strip the robe from the peaceful,[b]
from those who pass by trustingly
    with no thought of war.
