Isaiah
Isaiah 32:9–12
9Stand up, you complacent women;
listen to me.
Give ear to my word,
you overconfident daughters.
10In a little more than a year you will tremble,
O secure ones.
For the grape harvest will fail
and the fruit harvest will not arrive.
11Shudder, you ladies of leisure;
tremble, you daughters of complacency.
Strip yourselves bare
and put sackcloth around your waists.
12Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vines,
