Seeker Overlay ON
*
Woe to those that devise wickedness ,
and resolve on evil upon their couches !
by the first light of the morning they execute it ,
if they have it in the power of their hand .
*
And they covet fields ,
and rob them ;
and houses ,
and take them away :
so they defraud the master and his house ,
and the man and his heritage .
*
Therefore thus hath said the Lord ,
Behold ,
I will devise against this family an evil ,
from which ye shall not remove your necks ;
nor shall ye go erect ;
for it is an evil time .
*
On that day shall one take up a parable against you ,
and lament with a mournful lamentation ,
and say , "
We are utterly wasted :
the portion of my people hath he exchanged ;
how hath he removed it from me !
instead of restoring he divideth our fields ."
*
Therefore shalt thou have none that shall draw the cord in lot in the congregation of the Lord .
