17 (A)Then the lambs will graze as in their pasture,
And strangers will eat in the ruins of the [a]wealthy.

18 Woe to those who drag (B)wrongdoing with the cords of [b]deceit,
And sin as if with cart ropes;
19 (C)Who say, “Let Him hurry, let Him do His work quickly, so that we may see it;
And let the plan of the Holy One of Israel approach
And come to pass, so that we may know it!”
