7. Your creditors will suddenly attack;those who terrify you will spring into action,and they will rob you.
8. Because you robbed many countries,all who are left among the nations will rob you.You have shed human blood and committed violent acts against lands, cities, and those who live in them.
9. The one who builds his house by unjust gain is as good as dead.He does this so he can build his nest way up highand escape the clutches of disaster.
10. Your schemes will bring shame to your house.Because you destroyed many nations, you will self-destruct.
11. For the stones in the walls will cry out,and the wooden rafters will answer back.
12. The one who builds a city by bloodshed is as good as dead – he who starts a town by unjust deeds.
13. Be sure of this! The Lord who commands armies has decreed:The nations’ efforts will go up in smoke; their exhausting work will be for nothing.
14. For recognition of the Lord’s sovereign majesty will fill the earthjust as the waters fill up the sea.
15. “You who force your neighbor to drink wine are as good as dead – you who make others intoxicated by forcing them to drink from the bowl of your furious anger,so you can look at their genitals.
16. But you will become drunk with shame, not majesty.Now it is your turn to drink and expose your uncircumcised foreskin!The cup of wine in the Lord’s right hand is coming to you,and disgrace will replace your majestic glory!
