¹⁶ But the Lord of hosts is exalted by his judgment,
    and by righteousness the holy God has displayed his holiness.
¹⁷ Lambs will graze there as in their pasture,
    and yearlings will feed among the ruins.
¹⁸ Woe to those who drag iniquity along
    with the cords of perversity,
and who drag sin along
    as though with cart ropes;
