- Woe:
- "[As] I¹ live,ª saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª surely¹¹ because¹ my flockª became¹ a prey,ª and my flockª became¹ meatª to every¹ beastª of the field,ª because [there was] no¹¹ shepherd,ª° neither¹ did my shepherdsª° searchª°¹ for my flock,ª but the shepherdsª° fedª° themselves, and fedª° not¹ my flock;ª ... Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª Behold,¹ I [am] against¹ the shepherds;ª° and I will requireª°¹ my flockª at their hand,ª¹ and cause them to ceaseª° from feedingª°¹ the flock;ª neither¹ shall the shepherdsª° feedª° themselves any more;¹ for I will deliverª° my flockª from their mouth,ª¹ that they may not¹ be¹ meatª for them." {Ezk 34:8-10} + "And will ye polluteª° me among¹ my peopleª for handfulsª of barleyª and for piecesª of bread,ª to slayª° the soulsª that¹ should not¹ die,ª° and to save²° the souls² aliveª°¹ that¹ should not¹ live,ª° by your lyingª° to my peopleª that hearª° [your] lies?ª" {Ezk 13:19} + "Woeª be unto the pastorsª° that destroyª° and scatterª°¹ the sheepª of my pasture!ª saithª° the LORD.ª" {Jer 23:1} + "And I said,ª° Hear,ª° I pray you,¹ O headsª of Jacob,ª and ye princesª of the houseª of Israel;ª [Is it] not¹ for you to knowª°¹ judgment?ª ... Who¹ also eatª° the fleshª of my people,ª and flayª° their skinª from off¹¹ them; and they breakª° their bones,ª and chop them in pieces,ª° as¹ for the pot,ª and as fleshª withinª the caldron.ª" {Mic 3:1-3} + "The headsª thereof judgeª° for reward,ª and the priestsª thereof teachª° for hire,ª and the prophetsª thereof divineª° for money:ª yet will they leanª° upon¹ the LORD,ª and say,ª° [Is] not¹ the LORDª amongª us? none¹ evilª can comeª° upon¹ us. ... Therefore¹ shall Zionª for your sakeª be plowedª° [as] a field,ª and Jerusalemª shall become¹ heaps,ª and the mountainª of the houseª as the high placesª of the forest.ª" {Mic 3:11-12} + "Her princesª withinª her [are] roaringª° lions;ª her judgesª° [are] eveningª wolves;ª they gnaw not the bonesª°¹ till the morrow.ª ... Her prophetsª [are] lightª° [and] treacherousª persons:²¹ her priestsª have pollutedª° the sanctuary,ª they have done violenceª° to the law.ª" {Zph 3:3-4} + "Woeª to the idolª shepherdª that leavethª° the flock!ª the swordª [shall be] upon¹ his arm,ª and upon¹ his rightª eye:ª his armª shall be clean²° dried up,ª° and his rightª eyeª shall be utterly²° darkened.ª°" {Zch 11:17} + "But¹ and² ifª thatª evilª servantª shall sayª° inª his²¹ heart,ª Myª lordª delayethª° his coming;ª° ... Andª shall cut²° him² asunder,ª°¹ andª appointª° [him] hisª portionª withª the¹ hypocrites:ª thereª shall beª° weepingª andª gnashingª of teeth.ª" {Mtt 24:48-51} + "Andª the¹ Lordª said,ª° Whoª thenª isª° that faithfulª andª wiseª steward,ª whomª [his] lordª shall make rulerª° overª his²¹ household,ª to giveª° [them their] portion of meatª inª due season?ª ... The¹ lordª of thatª servantª will comeª° inª a dayª whenª he looketh²° not² forª°¹ [him], andª atª an hourª whenª he is²° not² aware,ª°¹ andª will cut²° him² in sunder,ª°¹ andª will appointª° him¹ his² portionª withª the¹ unbelievers.ª" {Lke 12:42-46} + "Bewareª° ofª the¹ scribes,ª which² desireª° to walkª° inª long robes,ª andª loveª° greetingsª inª the¹ markets,ª andª the highest seatsª inª the¹ synagogues,ª andª the chief roomsª atª feasts;ª ... Whichª devourª° widows'ª houses,ª andª for a shewª make²° long² prayers:ª°¹ the sameª shall receiveª° greaterª damnation.ª" {Lke 20:46-47} + "Forª they that are suchª serveª° notª ourª Lordª Jesusª Christ,ª butª their ownª belly;ª andª byª good wordsª andª fair speechesª deceiveª° the¹ heartsª of the¹ simple.ª" {Rom 16:18} + "Andª throughª covetousnessª shall they with feignedª wordsª make merchandiseª° of you:ª whoseª judgmentª now of a long timeª lingerethª° not,ª andª theirª damnationª slumberethª° not.ª" {2Pe 2:3}
