1 Righteous people die,and no one cares.Loyal people are taken away,and no one understands.Righteous people are spared when evil comes.
2 When peace comes,everyone who has lived honestly will rest on his own bed.
3 But you—come here,you children of witches,you descendants of adulterers and prostitutes!
4 Whom are you making fun of?Whom are you making a face at?Whom are you sticking out your tongue at?Aren’t you rebellious children,descendants of liars?
5 You burn with lust under oak treesand under every large tree.You slaughter children in the valleysand under the cracks in the rocks.
