12. The rich people among you harm others. You are always telling lies. You try to fool others by what you say.
13. So I will strike you down. I will destroy you because you have sinned so much.
14. You will eat. But you will not be satisfied. Your stomachs will still be empty. You will try to save what you can. But you will not be able to. If you do save something, it will be destroyed in battle.
15. You will plant seeds. But you will not harvest any crops. You will press olives. But you will not use the oil for yourselves. You will crush grapes. But you will not drink the wine that is made from them.
