²¹ O that city, once so loyal, has become a prostitute.
    Where there had been perfect justice, equity and compassion,
Now there are murderers.
²² All that once made your community shine like silver is now tarnished,
    your best drink watered down like a cheapskate’s wine.
²³ Your leaders are liars, running around with thieves,
    wheedling for bribes—greedy for “contributions.”
They don’t defend the needy and pay no attention to the weak.
