2 Kings 5:27
27Therefore the leprosy of Naaman shall cling to you and to your descendants forever.” So he went out from his presence aa leper, like snow.Isaiah 5:8-10
Woe to the Wicked
8 Woe to those who bjoin house to house,who add field to field,
until there is no more room,
and you are made to dwell alone
in the midst of the land.
9The Lord of hosts has sworn in my hearing:
c“Surely many houses shall be desolate,
large and beautiful houses, without inhabitant.
10 dFor ten acres ▼
▼Hebrew ten yoke, the area ten yoke of oxen can plow in a day
of vineyard shall yield but one bath,and a fhomer of seed shall yield but an ephah.” ▼
▼A bath was about 6 gallons or 22 liters; a homer was about 6 bushels or 220 liters; an ephah was about 3/5 bushel or 22 liters
Jeremiah 17:11
11 Like the hpartridge that gathers a brood that she did not hatch,so is ihe who gets riches but not by justice;
jin the midst of his days they will leave him,
kand at his end he will be a fool.
Habakkuk 2:9-11
9 l“Woe to him who gets evil gain for his house,mto nset his nest on high,
to be safe from the reach of harm!
10You have devised shame for your house
oby cutting off many peoples;
you have forfeited your life.
11For pthe stone will cry out from the wall,
and the beam from the woodwork respond.
Zechariah 5:3-4
3Then he said to me, “This is qthe curse that goes out over the face of the whole land. For everyone who rsteals shall be cleaned out according to what is on one side, and everyone who sswears falsely ▼▼Hebrew lacks falsely (supplied from verse 4)
shall be cleaned out according to what is on the other side. 4I will send it out, declares the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter the house of the thief, and the house of uhim who swears falsely by my name. And vit shall remain in his house and wconsume it, both timber and stones.”
