Lyrics
Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim And to the fading flower of his glorious beauty
Which are on the head of the fat valley of those who are overcome with wine Behold the Lord has a mighty and strong one As a tempest of hail a destroying storm
As a tempest of mighty waters overflowing He will cast down to the earth with his hand The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephraim
Shall be trodden under foot And the fading flower of his glorious beauty Which is on the head of the fat valley
Shall be like the first-ripe fig before the summer Which when one sees it he eats it up immediately Hear the word of the LORD you scornful men
That rule this people which is in Jerusalem Therefore hear the word of the LORD you scornful men That rule this people which is in Jerusalem
Because you have said We have made a covenant with death And with Sheol we have made an agreement When the overflowing scourge passes through It shall not come to us
For we have made lies our refuge And under falsehood have we hid ourselves Hear the word of the LORD you rulers of this people
A stone will be laid in Zion A tested stone a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation He who believes shall not be in haste
