The Day of the Lord

House of Jacob,
come and let us walk in the Lord’s light.(A)
For You have abandoned(B) Your people,
the house of Jacob,
because they are full of divination from the East
and of fortune-tellers(C) like the Philistines.(D)
They are in league[a] with foreigners.
Their[b][c] land is full of silver and gold,
and there is no limit to their treasures;
their land is full of horses,
and there is no limit to their chariots.(E)
