You’ve forced the women of my people
    from their nice houses;
you’ve taken my glory
    from their children forever.
10 Get up and leave.
    This is not your place of rest anymore.
You have made this place unclean,
    and it is doomed to destruction.
11 But you people want a false prophet
    who will tell you nothing but lies.
You want one who promises to prophesy good things for you
    if you give him wine and beer.
    He’s just the prophet for you.

You drive the women of my people
    from their pleasant homes.(A)
You take away my blessing
    from their children forever.
10 Get up, go away!
    For this is not your resting place,(B)
because it is defiled,(C)
    it is ruined, beyond all remedy.
11 If a liar and deceiver(D) comes and says,
    ‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’(E)
    that would be just the prophet for this people!(F)

10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.

11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
