Consequences of Complacency

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.
11 Tremble, you women who are at ease;
Be troubled, you complacent ones;
Strip yourselves, make yourselves bare,
And gird sackcloth on your waists.
12 People shall mourn upon their breasts
For the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.
13 aOn the land of my people will come up thorns and briers,
Yes, on all the happy homes in bthe joyous city;

Gird sackcloth - sak , sackcloth, a word necessary to the sense, is here lost, but preserved by the Septuagint, MSS. Alex. and Pachom., and 1. D. II., and edit. Ald. and Comp., and the Arabic and Syriac.

Tremble - be troubled - strip you - peshotah , regazah , etc. These are infinitives, with a paragogic he , according to Schultens, Institut. Ling. Hebr. p. 453, and are to be taken in an imperative sense.
