10 Sharon will be a pasture for flocks,(A)
and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down,(B)
for my people who have sought me.(C)
11 But you who abandon the Lord,
who forget my holy mountain,
who prepare a table for Fortune
and fill bowls of mixed wine for Destiny,[a]
12 I will destine you for the sword,
and all of you will kneel down to be slaughtered,
because I called and you did not answer,
I spoke and you did not hear;
you did what was evil in my sight
and chose what I did not delight in.”(D)

10 Sharon(A) will become a pasture for flocks,(B)
    and the Valley of Achor(C) a resting place for herds,
    for my people who seek(D) me.

11 “But as for you who forsake(E) the Lord
    and forget my holy mountain,(F)
who spread a table for Fortune
    and fill bowls of mixed wine(G) for Destiny,
12 I will destine you for the sword,(H)
    and all of you will fall in the slaughter;(I)
for I called but you did not answer,(J)
    I spoke but you did not listen.(K)
You did evil in my sight
    and chose what displeases me.”(L)
