Therefore Yahweh says:
“Behold, I am planning against these people a disaster,
    from which you will not remove your necks,
    neither will you walk haughtily;
    for it is an evil time.
In that day they will take up a parable against you,
    and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying,
    ‘We are utterly ruined!
    My people’s possession is divided up.
    Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!’”
Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in Yahweh’s assembly.

Therefore this is what the Lord says:

“Behold, I am (A)planning against this (B)family a catastrophe
From which you (C)cannot remove your necks;
And you will not walk (D)haughtily,
For it will be an (E)evil time.
On that day they will (F)take up against you a [a]song of mocking
And [b](G)utter a song of mourning and say,
‘We are completely (H)destroyed!
He exchanges the share of my people;
How He removes it from me!
To the apostate He (I)apportions our fields.’
Therefore you will have no one [c](J)applying a measuring line
For you by lot in the assembly of the Lord.
