You (A)evict the women of My people,
Each one from her pleasant house.
From her children you take My (B)splendor forever.
10 Arise and go,
For this is no place (C)of rest
Because of the (D)uncleanness that brings on destruction,
A painful destruction.
11 If someone walking after wind and (E)falsehood
Had lied and said,
‘I will prophesy to you about (F)wine and liquor,’
He would become a prophet to (G)this people.

Now hear this, you (A)heads of the house of Jacob
And rulers of the house of Israel,
Who (B)despise justice
And twist everything that is straight,
10 Who (C)build Zion with bloodshed,
And Jerusalem with malice.
11 Her leaders pronounce (D)judgment for a bribe,
Her (E)priests teach for pay,
And her prophets divine for money.
Yet they lean on the Lord, saying,
(F)Is the Lord not in our midst?
Catastrophe will not come upon us.”
