8 They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. And in the house of their God, they drink wine obtained through fines.

9 Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, though his height was like that of the cedars, and he was as strong as the oaks. Yet I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
