25 Your iniquities have disturbed these, and your sins have kept away the good from you.
26 For wicked people are found among my people, they lie in wait like the hiding of fowlers, they set up a trap, they catch humans.
27 Like a cage full of birds, so their houses are full of fraud. Therefore they have become great, and they have become rich.
28 They have grown fat, they have grown sleek, also, their evil deeds have no limit. They do not judge with justice, the legal cause of the orphan, or allow it to succeed, and the legal case of the poor, they do not defend.
29 Because of these things shall I not punish?” declares Yahweh, “and on a nation who is like this, shall I not take revenge?
30 A horrific event and something horrible has happened in the land.
31 The prophets prophesy falsely, and the priests rule by their own authority, and my people love it so much. But what will you do when the end comes?
