11. Shall I acquit the man with wicked scalesand with a bag of deceitful weights?
12. Your rich men are full of violence;your inhabitants speak lies,and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13. Therefore I strike you with a grievous blow, making you desolate because of your sins.
14. You shall eat, but not be satisfied,and there shall be hunger within you;you shall put away, but not preserve,and what you preserve I will give to the sword.
15. You shall sow, but not reap;you shall tread olives, but not anoint yourselves with oil;you shall tread grapes, but not drink wine.
16. For you have kept the statutes of Omri,and all the works of the house of Ahab;and you have walked in their counsels,that I may make you a desolation, and your inhabitants a hissing;so you shall bear the scorn of my people.”
