9 (A)Hear this, you heads of the house of Jacob
and rulers of the house of Israel,

and make crooked all that is straight,
10 (C)who build Zion with blood
and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 (D)Its heads give judgment for a bribe;
(E)its priests teach for a price;
(F)its prophets practice divination for money;
(G)yet they lean on the Lord and (H)say,
“Is not the Lord in the midst of us?
(I)No disaster shall come upon us.”

(J)Zion shall be plowed as a field;
Jerusalem (K)shall become a heap of ruins,
and (L)the mountain of the house (M)a wooded height.

and their flesh from off their bones,

and break their bones in pieces
and chop them up like meat in a pot,
