Sorrow for Israel’s Sins
1 Woe is me!
For I am like those who gather summer fruits,
Like those who aglean vintage grapes;
There is no cluster to eat
Of the first-ripe fruit which bmy soul desires.
For I am like those who gather summer fruits,
Like those who aglean vintage grapes;
There is no cluster to eat
Of the first-ripe fruit which bmy soul desires.
2 The afaithful man has perished from the earth,
And there is no one upright among men.
They all lie in wait for blood;
bEvery man hunts his brother with a net.
And there is no one upright among men.
They all lie in wait for blood;
bEvery man hunts his brother with a net.
3 That they may successfully do evil with both hands—
The prince asks for gifts,
The judge seeks a abribe,
And the great man utters his evil desire;
So they scheme together.

And the great man utters his evil desire;

4 The best of them is alike a brier;
The most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge;
The day of your watchman and your punishment comes;
Now shall be their perplexity.

The day of your watchman and your punishment comes;
Now shall be their perplexity.
