11 The ones who grind the grain[a] will wail;
        all the merchants will be silenced.
        I will eliminate all those weighing out silver.
12 At that time, I will search Jerusalem with lamps;
        I will punish the men growing fat on the sediment in their wine,
            those saying to themselves, The Lord won’t do good or evil.
13         Their wealth will be looted and their houses destroyed.
        They will rebuild houses, but not live in them;
        they will plant vineyards, but not drink the wine.
