10     From the plains of Sharon to the valley of Achor,
        My people—who look to Me and no other—
    Will have pasture for their sheep
        and safe places for their herds.
11     But those of you who ignore Me, the Eternal One—
        who turn away from My sanctuaries
    And reject My holy mountain
        to chase Lady Luck and cater to Destiny—
12     Will find yourselves a bit unlucky and your destiny an early death.
        You’ll bow down and be killed like sheep brought to the slaughter
    Because when I called you, you did not answer;
        when I spoke, you refused to listen.
    Instead you did all the wrong things and made terrible choices—
        what I expressly said that I hate.

10 Sharon(A) will become a pasture for flocks,(B)
    and the Valley of Achor(C) a resting place for herds,

    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)
