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 thus says the Lord:
behold, against (A)this family I am devising disaster,[a]
    from which you cannot remove your necks,
and you (B)shall not walk haughtily,
    (C)for it will be a time of disaster.
In that day (D)they shall take up a taunt song against you
    and moan bitterly,
and say, “We are utterly ruined;
    (E)he changes the portion of my people;
(F)how he removes it from me!
    (G)To an apostate he allots our fields.”
Therefore you will have none (H)to cast the line by lot
    in the assembly of the Lord.
