Isaiah 32:7-9
New King James Version

7 Also the schemes of the schemer are evil;
He devises wicked plans
To destroy the poor with (A)lying words,
Even when the needy speaks justice.
8 But a [a]generous man devises generous things,
And by generosity he shall stand.

Consequences of Complacency

9 Rise up, you women (B)who are at ease,
Hear my voice;
You complacent daughters,
Give ear to my speech.
