A sword is for her diviners, who will be fooled. A sword is for her strong ones, who will be afraid.
A sword is for their horses, and for their chariots, and for all the common people who are in her midst. And they will be like women. A sword is for her storehouses, and they will be plundered.
A drought is over her waters, and they will be dried up. For it is a land of graven images, and they glory in portents.
