10 “On that day,” declares the Lord,
    “a cry will be heard from (A)the Fish Gate,
(B)a wail from (C)the Second Quarter,
    a loud crash from the hills.
11 (D)Wail, O inhabitants of the Mortar!
    For all the traders[a] are no more;
    all who weigh out silver are cut off.
12 At that time (E)I will search Jerusalem with lamps,
    and I will punish the men
(F)who are complacent,[b]
    (G)those who say in their hearts,
‘The Lord will not do good,
    nor will he do ill.’
