Isaiah 3:16

16 The Lord said:
^cBecause ^dthe daughters of Zion are haughty
and walk with outstretched necks,
glancing wantonly with their eyes,
mincing along as they go,
^etinkling with their feet,

Isaiah 47:7-8

7 You said, “I shall be ^fmistress forever,”
so that you did not lay these things to heart
or remember their end.
8 Now therefore hear this, ^gyou lover of pleasures,
^hwho sit securely,
who say in your heart,
ⁱ“I am, and there is no one besides me;
^jI shall not sit as a widow
or know the loss of children”:

Jeremiah 6:2-6

2 The lovely and delicately bred I will destroy,
^kthe daughter of Zion. ^{▼▼Or I have likened the daughter of Zion to the loveliest pasture}
3 ^mShepherds with their flocks shall come against her;
ⁿthey shall pitch their tents around her;
they shall pasture, each in his place.
4 ^o“Prepare war against her;
arise, and let us attack ^pat noon!
Woe to us, for the day declines,
for the shadows of evening lengthen!
5 Arise, and let us attack by night
and destroy her palaces!”
6 For thus says the Lord of hosts:
^q“Cut down her trees;
^rcast up a siege mound against Jerusalem.
This is the city that must be ^spunished;
there is nothing but oppression within her.

Jeremiah 48:11-12

11 “Moab has been at ease from his youth
and has ^tsettled on his dregs;
he has not been emptied from vessel to vessel,
nor has he gone into exile;
so his taste remains in him,
and his scent is not changed.
12 “Therefore, behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I shall send to him pourers who will pour him, and empty his vessels and break his ^{▼▼Septuagint, Aquila; Hebrew their} jars in pieces.

Lamentations 4:5

5 Those who once feasted on delicacies
perish in the streets;
^vthose who were brought up in purple
embrace ash heaps.

Amos 6:1-6

Woe to Those at Ease in Zion

1 ^w“Woe to those who are at ease in Zion,
and to those who feel secure on ^xthe mountain of Samaria,
^ythe notable men of ^zthe first of the nations,
to whom the house of Israel comes!
2 Pass over to ^aaCalneh, and see,
and from there go to ^abHamath the great;
then go down to ^acGath of the Philistines.
^adAre you better than these kingdoms?
Or is their territory greater than your territory,
3 ^aeO you who put far away the day of disaster
^afand bring near the seat of violence?
4 “Woe to those ^agwho lie on ^ahbeds of ivory
^aiand stretch themselves out on their couches,
and eat lambs from the flock
^ajand calves from the midst of the stall,
5 ^akwho sing idle songs to the sound of the harp
and like David ^alinvent for themselves instruments of music,
6 ^amwho drink wine in bowls
and ^ananoint themselves with the finest oils,
but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!
