23 Your princes are rebels
    and companions of thieves.
Everyone (A)loves a bribe
    and runs after gifts.
(B)They do not bring justice to the fatherless,
    and the widow's cause does not come to them.

24 Therefore the (C)Lord declares,
    the Lord of hosts,
    the (D)Mighty One of Israel:
“Ah, I will get relief from my enemies
    (E)and avenge myself on my foes.
25 (F)I will turn my hand against you
    and will smelt away your (G)dross as with lye
    and remove all your alloy.
