Jeremiah 5:26-29
New King James Version

26 ‘For among My people are found wicked men;
They (A)lie in wait as one who sets snares;
They set a trap;
They catch men.
27 As a cage is full of birds,
So their houses are full of deceit.
Therefore they have become great and grown rich.
28 They have grown (B)fat, they are sleek;
Yes, they [a]surpass the deeds of the wicked;
They do not plead (C)the cause,
The cause of the fatherless;
(D)Yet they prosper,
And the right of the needy they do not defend.
29 (E)Shall I not punish them for these things?’ says the Lord.
‘Shall I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?’
