7 He will cry out in that day:“I cannot be a healer,when there is neither bread nor clothing in my own house!You will not make me a ruler of the people!”
8 Jerusalem has stumbled, Judah has fallen;for their speech and deeds affront the Lord,a provocation in the sight of his majesty.
9 Their very look bears witness against them;they boast of their sin like Sodom,They do not hide it.Woe to them!They deal out evil to themselves.
10 Happy the just, for it will go well with them,the fruit of their works they will eat.
11 Woe to the wicked! It will go ill with them,with the work of their hands they will be repaid.
12 My people—infants oppress them,women rule over them!My people, your leaders deceive you,they confuse the paths you should follow.
13 The Lord rises to accuse,stands to try his people.
