6 You took clothes away from your relatives just because they owed you some money. You left them naked for no reason at all.
7 You didn't give any water to people who were tired. You held food back from those who were hungry.
8 You did it even though you were honored and powerful. You owned land and lived on it.
9 But you sent widows away without anything. You mistreated children whose fathers had died.
10 That's why traps have been set all around you. That's why sudden danger terrifies you.
11 That's why it's so dark you can't even see. That's why a flood covers you up.
12 "Isn't God in the highest parts of heaven? See how high the highest stars are!
