6 Não profetizeis! Falam eles. Não lhes profetizarão, [mas] a vergonha não se desviará deles.

7 Por acaso se dirá, ó casa de Jacó: O espírito do SENHOR perdeu a paciência? São estas as suas obras? Por acaso minhas palavras não fazem bem ao que age corretamente?

8 Mas recentemente meu povo se levantou como inimigo; tomastes da roupa a capa daqueles que passavam confiantes, voltando da batalha.

9 Vós expulsais as mulheres de meu povo de suas queridas casas; de suas crianças tirastes minha glória para sempre.
