12 Horses do not run on rocks,
    and people do not plow rocks with oxen.
But you have changed fairness into poison;
    you have changed what is right into a bitter taste.
13 You are happy that the town of Lo Debar was captured,
    and you say, “We have taken Karnaim[a] by our own strength.”
14 The Lord God All-Powerful says,
    “Israel, I will bring a nation against you
that will make your people suffer from Lebo Hamath in the north
    to the valley south of the Dead Sea.”
