(A)“Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,
    (B)to (C)set his nest on high,
    to be safe from the reach of harm!
10 You have devised shame for your house
    (D)by cutting off many peoples;
    you have forfeited your life.
11 For (E)the stone will cry out from the wall,
    and the beam from the woodwork respond.

12 (F)“Woe to him (G)who builds a town with blood
    and founds a city on iniquity!
13 Behold, is it not from the Lord of hosts
    that (H)peoples labor merely for fire,
    and nations weary themselves for nothing?
14 (I)For the earth will be filled
    with the knowledge of (J)the glory of the Lord
    as the waters cover the sea.
