Isaiah 3:12-15

Common English Bible

¹² As for my people—oppressors strip them
    and swindlers^[a] rule them.
My people—your leaders mislead you and confuse your paths.

¹³ The Lord arises to accuse;
    he stands to judge the peoples.
¹⁴ The Lord will enter into judgment
    with the elders and princes of his people:
You yourselves have devoured the vineyard;
    the goods stolen from the poor are in your houses.
¹⁵ How dare you crush my people
    and grind the faces of the poor?
    says the Lord God of heavenly forces.
