- Kapitel 6 -

(Luke 6:24–26)
1
Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure in the hill country of Samaria, the notable men of the best of the nations, to whom the house of Israel comes for help!
2
Your leaders say, “Go to Calneh and look; from there go to Hamath, the great city; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than your two kingdoms? Is their border larger than your border?”
3
Woe to those who put off the day of disaster and make the throne of violence come near.
4
They lie on beds of ivory and lounge on their couches. They eat lambs from the flock and calves from the stall.
5
They sing foolish songs to the music of the harp; they improvise on instruments as David did.
6
They drink wine from bowls and anoint themselves with the finest oils, but they do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph.
7
So they will now go into exile with the first exiles, and the feasts of those who lounge about will pass away.

The Pride of Israel

8
“I, Lord Yahweh, have sworn by myself -this is the declaration of Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts, I detest the pride of Jacob; I hate his fortresses. Therefore, I will hand over the city with all that is in it.”
9
It will come about that if there are ten men left in one house, they will all die.
10
When a man’s relative comes to take their bodies up-the one who is to cremate them after bringing the corpses out of the house-if he says to the person in the house, “Is there anyone with you?” What if that person says, “No.” Then he will say, “Be quiet, for we must not mention Yahweh’s name.”
11
For, look, Yahweh will give a command, and the big house will be smashed to pieces, and the little house to bits.
12
Do horses run on the rocky cliffs? Does one plow there with oxen? Yet you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness.
13
You who rejoice over Lo Debar, who say, “Have we not taken Karnaim by our own strength?”
14
“But look, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel-this is the declaration of Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts. They will afflict you from Lebo Hamath to the brook of the Arabah.”

(Luke 6:24–26)
1
Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!
2
Go to Calneh, and see. From there go to Hamath the great. Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? Is their border greater than your border?
3
Alas for you who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near,
4
who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the middle of the stall,
5
who strum on the strings of a harp, who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;
6
who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the best oils, but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
7
Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive. The feasting and lounging will end.

The Pride of Israel

8
“The Lord GOD has sworn by himself,” says the LORD, the God of Armies: “I abhor the pride of Jacob, and detest his fortresses. Therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.
9
It will happen that if ten men remain in one house, they will die.
10
“When a man’s relative carries him, even he who burns him, to bring bodies out of the house, and asks him who is in the innermost parts of the house, ‘Is there yet any with you?’ And he says, ‘No;’ then he will say, ‘Hush! Indeed we must not mention the LORD’s name.’
11
“For, behold, the LORD commands, and the great house will be smashed to pieces, and the little house into bits.
12
Do horses run on the rocky crags? Does one plow there with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness,
13
you who rejoice in a thing of nothing, who say, ‘Haven’t we taken for ourselves horns by our own strength?’
14
For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel,” says the LORD, the God of Armies; “and they will afflict you from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of the Arabah.”
