my mountains in the countryside.
I will give up your wealth
and all your treasures as plunder(A)
because of the sin of your high places[a]
in all your borders.(B)
You will, on your own, relinquish your inheritance
that I gave you.
I will make you serve your enemies
in a land you do not know,(C)
for you have set my anger on fire;(D)
it will burn forever.

Curse and Blessing

This is what the Lord says:

Cursed is the person who trusts in mankind.(E)
He makes human flesh his strength,(F)
and his heart turns from the Lord.
