10 “On that day,” says the Lord,
“a cry will be heard at the Fish Gate.
    A wail will come from the ·new area of the city [L Second Quarter],
    and a loud crash will echo from the hills.
11 ·Cry [Wail], you people living in ·the market area [or the lower town; or Mortar; C possibly a place name],
    because all the merchants will ·be dead [be destroyed; or disappear];
    all the silver traders will be ·gone [L cut off].
12 At that time I, the Lord, will search Jerusalem with lamps.
    I will punish those who are ·satisfied with themselves [complacent; or entrenched in sin; L thickened in their dregs/sediment],
    who think, ‘The Lord won’t ·help us or punish us [L do good or evil].’
