Woe to those who add house to house and join field to field until there is no more room and you alone are left in the land.I heard the LORD of Armies say: Indeed, many houses will become desolate, grand and lovely ones without inhabitants.For a ten-acre vineyard will yield only six gallons of wine, and ten bushels of seed will yield only one bushel of grain.

Israel has sinned. They have violated my covenant that I appointed for them. They have taken some of what was set apart. They have stolen, deceived, and put those things with their own belongings.This is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies. They will turn their backs and run from their enemies, because they have been set apart for destruction. I will no longer be with you unless you remove from among you what is set apart.

The one who lives righteously and speaks rightly, who refuses profit from extortion, whose hand never takes a bribe, who stops his ears from listening to murderous plots and shuts his eyes against evil schemes—he will dwell on the heights; his refuge will be the rocky fortresses, his food provided, his water assured.

It will stay inside his house and destroy it along with its timbers and stones.”
