11 Look, the Lord will give the command,
    and the large houses will be broken to pieces,
    and the small houses will be broken to small pieces.
12 Do horses run over loose rocks?
    No, and people don’t use cows for plowing.
But you turned everything upside down.
    You changed justice and goodness to bitter poison.
13 You are so excited about defeating Lo Debar.[a]
    And you boast, “We have taken Karnaim[b] by our own strength.”
