1 But I said:Hear, leaders of Jacob,rulers of the house of Israel!Isn’t it your job to know justice?—
2 you who hate good and love evil,who tear the skin off them, and the flesh off their bones,
3 who devour the flesh of my people,tear off their skin,break their bones in pieces,and spread them out as if in a pot,like meat in a kettle.
4 Then they will cry out to the Lord, but he won’t answer them.He will hide his face from them at that time,because of their evil deeds.
