2:1 Woe
to
those
who
devise
wickedness
and
work
evil
on
their
beds!
When
the
morning
dawns,
they
perform
it,
because
it
is
in
the
power
of
their
hand.
2:2 They
covet
fields
and
seize
them,
and
houses,
and
take
them
away;
they
oppress
a
man
and
his
house,
a
man
and
his
inheritance.
2:3 Therefore
thus
says
the
LORD:
behold,
against
this
family
I
am
devising
disaster,
from
which
you
cannot
remove
your
necks,
and
you
shall
not
walk
haughtily,
for
it
will
be
a
time
of
disaster.
2:4 In
that
day
they
shall
take
up
a
taunt
song
against
you
and
moan
bitterly,
and
say,
"We
are
utterly
ruined;
he
changes
the
portion
of
my
people;
how
he
removes
it
from
me!
To
an
apostate
he
allots
our
fields."
2:5 Therefore
you
will
have
none
to
cast
the
line
by
lot
in
the
assembly
of
the
LORD.
2:6 "Do
not
preach"--thus
they
preach--
"one
should
not
preach
of
such
things;
disgrace
will
not
overtake
us."
2:7 Should
this
be
said,
O
house
of
Jacob
Has
the
LORD
grown
impatient
Are
these
his
deeds
Do
not
my
words
do
good
to
him
who
walks
uprightly
2:8 But
lately
my
people
have
risen
up
as
an
enemy;
you
strip
the
rich
robe
from
those
who
pass
by
trustingly
with
no
thought
of
war.
2:9 The
women
of
my
people
you
drive
out
from
their
delightful
houses;
from
their
young
children
you
take
away
my
splendor
forever.
2:10 Arise
and
go,
for
this
is
no
place
to
rest,
because
of
uncleanness
that
destroys
with
a
grievous
destruction.
2:11 If
a
man
should
go
about
and
utter
wind
and
lies,
saying,
"I
will
preach
to
you
of
wine
and
strong
drink,"
he
would
be
the
preacher
for
this
people!
2:12 I
will
surely
assemble
all
of
you,
O
Jacob;
I
will
gather
the
remnant
of
Israel;
I
will
set
them
together
like
sheep
in
a
fold,
like
a
flock
in
its
pasture,
a
noisy
multitude
of
men.
2:13 He
who
opens
the
breach
goes
up
before
them;
they
break
through
and
pass
the
gate,
going
out
by
it.
Their
king
passes
on
before
them,
the
LORD
at
their
head.
