7“Is it being said, O house of Jacob:
         ‘Is the Spirit of the LORD impatient?
         Are these His doings?’
         Do not My words do good
         To the one walking uprightly?

8“Recently My people have arisen as an enemy—
         You strip the robe off the garment
         From unsuspecting passers-by,
         From those returned from war.

9“The women of My people you evict,
         Each one from her pleasant house.
         From her children you take My splendor forever.

10“Arise and go,
         For this is no place of rest
         Because of the uncleanness that brings on destruction,
         A painful destruction.

11“If a man walking after wind and falsehood
         Had told lies and said,
         ‘I will speak out to you concerning wine and liquor,’
         He would be spokesman to this people.

12“I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob,
         I will surely gather the remnant of Israel.
         I will put them together like sheep in the fold;
         Like a flock in the midst of its pasture
         They will be noisy with men.

13“The breaker goes up before them;
         They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it.
         So their king goes on before them,
         And the LORD at their head.”
