Woe to Rebellious Israel
(Acts 7:39–43)
16Therefore this is what the LORD, the God of Hosts, the Lord, says:
“There will be wailing in all the public squares
and cries of ‘Alas! Alas!’ in all the streets.
The farmer will be summoned to mourn,
and the mourners to wail.
17There will be wailing in all the vineyards,
for I will pass through your midst,”
says the LORD.
18Woe to you who long for the Day of the LORD!
What will the Day of the LORD be for you?
It will be darkness and not light.
19It will be like a man who flees from a lion,
only to encounter a bear,
or who enters his house and rests his hand against the wall,
only to be bitten by a snake.
20Will not the Day of the LORD
be darkness and not light,
even gloom with no brightness in it?
21“I hate, I despise your feasts!
I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.
22Even though you offer Me burnt offerings and grain offerings,
I will not accept them;
for your peace offerings of fattened cattle
I will have no regard.
23Take away from Me the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.
24But let justice roll on like a river,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25Did you bring Me sacrifices and offerings
forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
26You have taken along Sakkuth your king
and Kaiwan your star god,
the idols you made for yourselves.
27Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,”
says the LORD, whose name is the God of Hosts.
