Israel’s Great Misery
(Matthew 10:34–39, Luke 12:49–53)
7 Woe is me! For I am like one gathering summer fruit at the gleaning of the vineyard; there [is no] cluster to eat, no early fig that I crave.
2 The godly [man] has perished from the earth; there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; they hunt one another with a net.
3 Both hands are skilled at evil; the prince and the judge demand a bribe. When the powerful utters his evil desire, they all conspire together.
4 The best of them [is] like a brier; the most upright [is sharper] than a hedge of thorns. The day for your watchmen has come, [the day of] your visitation.[fn] Now is [the time] of their confusion.
5 Do not rely on a friend; do not trust in a companion. Seal the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your arms.[fn]
6 For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies [are] the members of his own household.[fn]
