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
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.
2:6 ‘Don’t preach with such impassioned rhetoric,’ they say excitedly.
‘These prophets should not preach of such things;
we will not be overtaken by humiliation.’
