Look, I am planning against this family an evil
    from which you cannot free your necks;
Nor shall you walk with head held high,
    for it will be an evil time.

    and there will be bitter lament:
“Our ruin is complete,
    our fields are divided among our captors,

    and no one can get them back!”[a]

    in the assembly of the Lord
    to allot to you a share of land.
