Israel’s Punishment

Israel, do not rejoice;
    don’t shout for joy as the other nations do.
You have been ·like a prostitute against [unfaithful to] your God.
    You love the pay of prostitutes on every threshing floor.
But the threshing floor and the winepress will not feed the people,
    and ·there won’t be enough new wine [or the new wine will deceive them].

Punishment for Israel

Do not rejoice, Israel;
    do not be jubilant(A) like the other nations.

    you love the wages of a prostitute(C)
    at every threshing floor.
Threshing floors and winepresses will not feed the people;
    the new wine(D) will fail them.
