1 Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, and to the writers who write oppressive decrees;
2 to deprive the needy from justice, and to rob the poor amongst my people of their rights, that widows may be their plunder, and that they may make the fatherless their prey!
3 What will you do in the day of visitation, and in the desolation which will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? Where will you leave your wealth?
4 They will only bow down under the prisoners,and will fall under the slain.For all this his anger is not turned away,but his hand is stretched out still.
