Consequences of Complacency
10 In a year and some days
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.
You will be troubled, you complacent women;
For the vintage will fail,
The gathering will not come.
11 Tremble, you women who are at ease;
Be troubled, you complacent ones;
Strip yourselves, make yourselves bare,
And gird sackcloth on your waists.
Be troubled, you complacent ones;
Strip yourselves, make yourselves bare,
And gird sackcloth on your waists.
13 aOn the land of my people will come up thorns and briers,
Yes, on all the happy homes in bthe joyous city;
Yes, on all the happy homes in bthe joyous city;
14 aBecause the palaces will be forsaken,
The bustling city will be deserted.
The forts and towers will become lairs forever,
A joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks—
The bustling city will be deserted.
The forts and towers will become lairs forever,
A joy of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks—
