And take grain1 taxes from him,
Though byou have built houses of hewn stone,
Yet you shall not dwell in them;
You have planted1 pleasant vineyards,
But you shall not drink wine from them.
And your mighty sins:
bAfflicting the just and taking bribes;
cDiverting the poor from justice at the gate.
That you may live;
So the Lord God of hosts will be with you,
aAs you have spoken.
