Won’t your creditors suddenly arise,
and those who disturb you wake up?
Then you will become spoil for them.(A)
Since you have plundered many nations,
all the peoples who remain will plunder you—
because of human bloodshed
and violence against lands, cities,
and all who live in them.(B)

Woe to him who dishonestly makes
wealth for his house[a]
to place his nest on high,
to escape from the reach of disaster!(C)
