Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds! When the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.

Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go forth out of the city, and will dwell in the field, and will come even to Babylon. There you will be rescued. There Yahweh will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.

Let your hand be lifted up above your adversaries, and let all of your enemies be cut off.

I will destroy witchcraft from your hand; and you shall have no soothsayers.

The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
