Hosea 4:1-5
Hear the word of Jehovah, ye children of Israel; for Jehovah hath a controversy with the inhabitants of the land, because there is no truth, nor goodness, nor knowledge of God in the land.There is nought but swearing and breaking faith, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery; they break out, and blood toucheth blood.Therefore shall the land mourn, and every one that dwelleth therein shall languish, with the beasts of the field and the birds of the heavens; yea, the fishes of the sea also shall be taken away.Yet let no man strive, neither let any man reprove; for thy people are as they that strive with the priest.And thou shalt stumble in the day, and the prophet also shall stumble with thee in the night; and I will destroy thy mother.

Isaiah 5:7-30
For the vineyard of Jehovah of hosts is the house of Israel, and the men of Judah his pleasant plant: and he looked for justice, but, behold, oppression; for righteousness, but, behold, a cry.Woe unto them that join house to house, that lay field to field, till there be no room, and ye be made to dwell alone in the midst of the land!In mine ears saith Jehovah of hosts, Of a truth many houses shall be desolate, even great and fair, without inhabitant.For ten acres of vineyard shall yield one bath, and a homer of seed shall yield but an ephah.Woe unto them that rise up early in the morning, that they may follow strong drink; that tarry late into the night, till wine inflame them!And the harp and the lute, the tabret and the pipe, and wine, are in their feasts; but they regard not the work of Jehovah, neither have they considered the operation of his hands.Therefore my people are gone into captivity for lack of knowledge; and their honorable men are famished, and their multitude are parched with thirst.Therefore Sheol hath enlarged its desire, and opened its mouth without measure; and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth among them, descend into it.And the mean man is bowed down, and the great man is humbled, and the eyes of the lofty are humbled:but Jehovah of hosts is exalted in justice, and God the Holy One is sanctified in righteousness.Then shall the lambs feed as in their pasture, and the waste places of the fat ones shall wanderers eat.Woe unto them that draw iniquity with cords of falsehood, and sin as it were with a cart rope;that say, Let him make speed, let him hasten his work, that we may see it; and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink;that justify the wicked for a bribe, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!Therefore as the tongue of fire devoureth the stubble, and as the dry grass sinketh down in the flame, so their root shall be as rottenness, and their blossom shall go up as dust; because they have rejected the law of Jehovah of hosts, and despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten them; and the mountains tremble, and their dead bodies are as refuse in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss for them from the end of the earth; and, behold, they shall come with speed swiftly.None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken:whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent; their horses’ hoofs shall be accounted as flint, and their wheels as a whirlwind:their roaring shall be like a lioness, they shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and carry it away safe, and there shall be none to deliver.And they shall roar against them in that day like the roaring of the sea: and if one look unto the land, behold, darkness and distress; and the light is darkened in the clouds thereof.

Zechariah 5:5-8
Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth.And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their appearance in all the land( and, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead); and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.And he said, This is Wickedness: and he cast her down into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
