⁸ of the land. It is to be his property in Israel. And ^(A)my princes shall no more oppress my people, but ^(B)they shall let the house of Israel have the land according to their tribes.

^18 (A)The prince shall not take any of the inheritance of the people, ^(B)thrusting them out of their property. He shall give his sons their inheritance out of his own property, so that none of my people shall be ^(C)scattered from his property.”

^5 (A)“Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will raise up for David a righteous ^(B)Branch, and ^(C)he shall reign as king and deal wisely, and shall execute justice and righteousness in the land.

^27 (A)Her princes in her midst are like wolves ^(B)tearing the prey, ^(C)shedding blood, destroying lives to get dishonest gain.

²³ So Joshua took the whole land, ^(A)according to all that the Lord had spoken to Moses. ^(B)And Joshua gave it for an inheritance to Israel ^(C)according to their tribal allotments. And the land had rest from war.

The Rider on a White Horse

¹¹ Then I saw ^(A)heaven opened, and behold, ^(B)a white horse! The one sitting on it is called ^(C)Faithful and True, and ^(D)in righteousness he judges and makes war. ^12 (E)His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are ^(F)many diadems, and he has ^(G)a name written that no one knows but himself. ¹³ He is clothed in ^(H)a robe dipped in^[a] blood, and the name by which he is called is ^(I)The Word of God. ¹⁴ And the armies of heaven, ^(J)arrayed in fine linen, white and pure, ^(K)were following him on white horses. ^15 (L)From his mouth comes a sharp sword ^(M)with which to strike down the nations, and ^(N)he will rule^[b] them with a rod of iron. ^(O)He will tread the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God the Almighty. ¹⁶ On his robe and on his thigh ^(P)he has a name written, ^(Q)King of kings and Lord of lords.

Warning to the Rich

5 Come now, ^(A)you rich, weep and howl for the ^(B)miseries that are coming upon you. ^2 (C)Your riches have rotted and ^(D)your garments are moth-eaten. ³ Your gold and silver have corroded, and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. ^(E)You have laid up treasure ^(F)in the last days. ⁴ Behold, ^(G)the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and ^(H)the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of ^(I)the Lord of hosts. ^5 (J)You have lived on the earth in luxury and ^(K)in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in ^(L)a day of slaughter. ⁶ You have condemned and ^(M)murdered ^(N)the righteous person. He does not resist you.

⁶ But you ^(A)have dishonored the poor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you, and the ones who ^(B)drag you ^(C)into court?
