² Go look at the city of Calneh,
    and from there go to the great city Hamath [^CAramean city-states under the control of Israel];
    then go down to Gath of the Philistines.
·You are no better than these kingdoms [^LAre they better than your kingdoms?].
    ·Your land is no larger than theirs [^LIs their territory greater than yours?].
³ You put off the ·day of punishment [day of disaster/doom; ^Levil day],
    but you ·bring near [establish] ·the day when you can do evil to others [a reign of terror; ^Lthe seat of violence].
⁴ You lie on beds ·decorated with ivory [^Lof ivory]
    and stretch out on your couches.
You eat ·tender lambs [^Llambs from the flock]
    and ·fattened calves [^Lcalves from the midst of the stall].
