⁹ Hear this, O rulers of the house of Jacob
    and leaders of the house of Israel,
those detesting justice
    and perverting all that is right,
¹⁰ he who builds Zion with blood
    and Jerusalem with wickedness.
¹¹ Its rulers judge for a bribe;
    its priests teach for a price;
    its prophets practice divination for money.
But they lean on Yahweh, saying,
    “Is not Yahweh in our midst?
    Disaster will not come upon us.”
¹² Therefore on account of you
    Zion will be plowed as a field,
and Jerusalem will be a heap of rubble,
    and the temple mount^[a] as a high place in a forest.
