Context
Land Robbers Will Lose their Land
2:1 Those who devise sinful plans are as good as dead, those who dream about doing evil as they lie in bed . As soon as morning dawns they carry out their plans, because they have the power to do so.
2:2 They confiscate the fields they desire, and seize the houses they want . They defraud people of their homes , and deprive people of the land they have inherited .
2:3 Therefore the Lord says this : “Look , I am devising disaster for this nation ! It will be like a yoke from which you cannot free your neck . You will no longer walk proudly , for it will be a time of catastrophe .
2:4 In that day people will sing this taunt song to you– they will mock you with this lament : ‘We are completely destroyed ; they sell off the property of my people . How they remove it from me! They assign our fields to the conqueror .’
2:5 Therefore no one will assign you land in the Lord’s community .
