10. As you carry out a corpseto prepare it for burial,your relative in the housewill ask, “Are there others?”You will answer, “No!”Then your relative will reply,“Be quiet! Don't dare mentionthe name of the Lord.”
11. At the Lord's command,houses great and smallwill be smashed to pieces.
12. Horses can't gallop on rocks;oceans can't be ploughed.But you have turned justiceand fairnessinto bitter poison.
13. You celebrate the defeatof Lo-Debar and Karnaim,and you boast by saying,“We did it on our own.”
14. But the Lord God All-Powerfulwill send a nation to attackyou people of Israel.They will capture Lebo-Hamathin the north,Arabah Brook in the south,and everything in between.
