Is it because you’re so pious that he accuses you
    and brings judgment against you?
No, it’s because of your wickedness!
    There’s no limit to your sins.

“For example, you must have lent money to your friend
    and demanded clothing as security.
    Yes, you stripped him to the bone.
You must have refused water for the thirsty
    and food for the hungry.
You probably think the land belongs to the powerful
    and only the privileged have a right to it!
You must have sent widows away empty-handed
    and crushed the hopes of orphans.
10 That is why you are surrounded by traps
    and tremble from sudden fears.
11 That is why you cannot see in the darkness,
    and waves of water cover you.

Does he rebuke you for your piety,
    bring you in for judgment?
Isn’t your wickedness massive,
    your iniquity endless?
You have taken payments from your family for no reason;
    stripped the naked, leaving no clothes;
    denied water to the thirsty,
    withheld bread from the starving.
(The powerful own land;
    the favored live in it.)
You have sent widows away empty;
    crushed orphans’ resources.
10 For this reason, snares surround you;
    sudden dread brings panic to you
11     or a darkness that you can’t see;
    rushing water will cover you.
