Context Reading
8“On the Day of the LORD’s sacrifice I will punish the princes, the sons of the king, and all who are dressed in foreign apparel. 9On that day I will punish all who leap over the threshold, who fill the house of their master with violence and deceit. 10On that day,” declares the LORD, “a cry will go up from the Fish Gate, a wail from the Second District, and a loud crashing from the hills. 11Wail, O dwellers of the Hollow, for all your merchants will be silenced; all who weigh out silver will be cut off. 12And at that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps and punish the men settled in complacency, who say to themselves, ‘The LORD will do nothing, either good or bad.’
