Micah 6:13-15
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 I have begun to strike you
with devastation because of your sins.
14 You shall eat, without being satisfied,
food that will leave you empty;
What you acquire, you cannot save;
what you do save, I will deliver up to the sword.(A)
15 You shall sow, yet not reap,
tread out the olive, yet pour no oil,
crush the grapes, yet drink no wine.(B)
Micah 6:13-15

to ruin[a] you because of your sins.

your stomach will still be empty.[b]
You will store up but save nothing,(C)
because what you save[c] I will give to the sword.
