“Thus says the Lord God: (A)Enough, O princes of Israel! Put away violence and oppression, and execute justice and righteousness. Cease (B)your evictions of my people, declares the Lord God.

10 (C)“You shall have just balances, a just ephah, and a just bath.[a] 11 The ephah and the bath shall be (D)of the same measure, (E)the bath containing one tenth of a homer,[b] and the ephah one tenth of a homer; the homer shall be the standard measure. 12 (F)The shekel shall be twenty gerahs;[c] twenty shekels plus twenty-five shekels plus fifteen shekels shall be your mina.[d]
