grinding is low,

and all the daughters of song grow
faint,

and the mourners go about the streets:
when men fear the heights
and dangers of the road, when the
almond tree blossoms, the
grasshopper loses its spring,
and the caper
berry shrivels— for then man goes to his eternal home
and mourners walk the streets.

thieves. They all love bribes
and chasing after rewards. They do not defend the fatherless,
and the
plea of the widow never comes before them.

purge your
dross; I will remove all your impurities.

and sinners will together be
shattered,
and those who
forsake the LORD will perish.
