And now what is to Me here, a statement of Jehovah? For My people is taken for nothing; those ruling howl, a statement of Jehovah. And My name is continually despised, every day.
Their widows are more numerous about Me than the sand of the seas. I have brought for them one devastating at noonday against the mother of a young man; I caused anguish and terror to fall on her suddenly.
And I will give all the wealth of this city, and all its produce, and all its precious things, and all the treasures of the kings of Judah, even I will give them into the hand of their enemies who will plunder them and take them, and bring them to Babylon.
Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish, and all its young lions, shall say to you, Have you come to plunder a plunder? Have you gathered your assembly to steal a prize, to lift up silver and gold, to take away livestock and goods, to plunder a great plunder?
And their wealth shall become a prize, and their houses a desolation. And they shall build houses, but not live there. And they shall plant vineyards, but not drink their wine.
