10. Thou hast taken shameful counsel for thy house by cutting off many peoples and hast committed a sin against thy life.
11. For the stone shall cry out from the wall, and the beam out of the timber shall answer it.
12. Woe to him that builds the city with blood and founds the village with iniquity!
13. Is this not of the Lord of the hosts? Therefore the peoples shall labour for the fire, and the Gentiles shall weary themselves in vain.
14. For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
15. Woe unto him that gives his neighbours drink, that puts thy bottle to them, and makes them drunken also, that thou may look on their nakedness!
16. Thou hast filled thyself with dishonour instead of honour; drink thou also, and thy foreskin shall be uncovered; the cup of the Lord’s right hand shall be turned unto thee, and shameful vomit shall fall upon thy glory.
17. For the violence of Lebanon shall fall upon thee and the destruction of the wild beasts shall break thee, because of the human blood, and of the robbery of the land, of the cities, and of all that dwell therein.
18. Of what profit is the graven image that its maker has sculpted; the molten image, that teaches lies, so that in making dumb images the maker trusts in his work?
19. Woe unto him that saith to the wood, Awake; to the dumb stone, Arise! Can it ever teach? Behold, it is laid over with gold and silver, and there is no breath at all within it.
20. But the Lord is in his holy temple: let all the earth keep silence before him.
