8 He has declared unto thee, O man, what is good and what the Lord requires of thee: only to do right judgment, and to love mercy, and to humble thyself to walk with thy God.
9 The Lord’s voice cries out unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see thy name: hear ye the rod, and he who has established it.
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked and the scant measure that is abominable?
11 Can I be pure with false balances and with a bag of deceitful weights?
12 With which their rich men are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
13 Therefore I have also made thee weak in smiting thee, in making thee desolate because of thy sins.
14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy casting down shall be in the midst of thee; and thou shalt take, but shalt not be saved; and that which thou dost save, I will give it up to the sword.
