Hard Times Are Coming

You women who are ·calm [complacent] now,
    ·stand [rise] up and listen to ·me [L my voice].
You ·women [L daughters] who feel ·safe [secure; self-confident] now,
    hear what I say.
10 You women feel ·safe [secure; self-confident] now,
    but ·after one year [L in a year and some days] you will ·be afraid [shudder; tremble].
There will be no grape harvest
    and no summer fruit to gather.
11 Women, you are ·calm [complacent] now, but you should shake with fear.
    Women, you feel ·safe [secure; self-confident] now, but you should tremble.
·Take [Strip] off your nice clothes
    and put ·rough cloth [burlap; sackcloth] around your waist [C a sign of sorrow or despair].
