10 “On that day,(A)
    declares the Lord,
“a cry will go up from the Fish Gate,(B)
    wailing(C) from the New Quarter,
    and a loud crash from the hills.
11 Wail,(D) you who live in the market district[a];
    all your merchants will be wiped out,
    all who trade with[b] silver will be destroyed.(E)
12 At that time I will search Jerusalem with lamps
    and punish those who are complacent,(F)
    who are like wine left on its dregs,(G)
who think, ‘The Lord will do nothing,(H)
    either good or bad.’(I)
13 Their wealth will be plundered,(J)
    their houses demolished.
Though they build houses,
    they will not live in them;
though they plant vineyards,
    they will not drink the wine.”(K)
