And make the poor of the land fail,
5 Saying:
“When will the New Moon be past,
That we may sell grain?
And (A)the Sabbath,
That we may [b]trade wheat?
(B)Making the ephah small and the shekel large,
Falsifying the scales by (C)deceit,
6 That we may buy the poor for (D)silver,
And the needy for a pair of sandals—
Even sell the bad wheat?”

and the needy for a pair of sandals,
selling even the sweepings with the wheat.(I)
