6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work ^ainiquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail. ‡

7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with ^alying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice. ‡

9 Rise up, you women ^awho are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech. ‡

10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.
