5The fool shall be no more called noble, nor the churl said to be bountiful.
6For the fool will speak folly, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise profaneness, and to utter error against Jehovah, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and to cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.
7And the instruments of the churl are evil: he deviseth wicked devices to destroy the meek with lying words, even when the needy speaketh right.
8But the noble deviseth noble things; and in noble things shall he continue.
9Rise up, ye women that are at ease, [and] hear my voice; ye careless daughters, give ear unto my speech.
10For days beyond a year shall ye be troubled, ye careless women; for the vintage shall fail, the ingathering shall not come.
11Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones; strip you, and make you bare, and gird [sackcloth] upon your loins.
