6 Woe to you^(A) who are complacent^(B) in Zion,
    and to you who feel secure^(C) on Mount Samaria,^(D)
you notable men of the foremost nation,
    to whom the people of Israel come!^(E)

³ You put off the day of disaster
    and bring near a reign of terror.^(A)
4 You lie on beds adorned with ivory
    and lounge on your couches.^(B)
You dine on choice lambs
    and fattened calves.^(C)
5 You strum away on your harps^(D) like David
    and improvise on musical instruments.^(E)
6 You drink wine^(F) by the bowlful
    and use the finest lotions,
    but you do not grieve^(G) over the ruin of Joseph.^(H)
