In context

9 You drive the women of My people from their pleasant homes. You take away My blessing from their children forever.

10 Arise and depart, for this is not your place of rest, because its defilement brings destruction— a grievous destruction!

11 If a man of wind were to come and say falsely, “I will preach to you of wine and strong drink,” he would be just the preacher for this people!

12 I will surely gather all of you, O Jacob; I will collect the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a pen, like a flock in the midst of its pasture— a noisy throng.

13 One who breaks open the way will go up before them; they will break through the gate, and go out by it. Their King will pass through before them, the LORD as their leader.
