11 “Behold, days are coming,” declares Lord Yahweh,
“When I will send a famine on the land,
Not a famine for bread or a thirst for water,
But rather afor hearing the words of Yahweh.
12 People will wander from sea to sea
And from the north even to the east;
They will go to and fro to aseek the word of Yahweh,
But they will not find it.
13 In that day the beautiful avirgins
And the choice men will bfaint from thirst.
14 As for those who swear by the aguilt of Samaria,
Who say, ‘As your god lives, O bDan,’
And, ‘As the way of cBeersheba lives,’
They will fall and dnot rise again.”
