\c 3

\p
|

|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 1 I said, "Now listen,
|
||
|
|
\q you leaders of Jacob
|
||
|
|
\q and rulers of the house of Israel:
|
||
|
|
\q Is it not right for you to understand justice?
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 2 You who hate good
|
||
|
|
\q and love evil,
|
||
|
|
\q you who tear off their skin,
|
||
|
|
\q their flesh from their bones—
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 3 you who also eat the flesh of my people,
|
||
|
|
\q and tear their skin off,
|
||
|
|
\q break their bones,
|
||
|
|
\q and chop them in pieces,
|
||
|
|
\q just like meat for a pot,
|
||
|
|
\q just like meat in a cauldron.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 4 Then you rulers will cry out to Yahweh,
|
||
|
|
\q but he will not answer you.
|
||
|
|
\q He will hide his face from you at that time,
|
||
|
|
\q because you have done evil deeds."

\q
|

|
|
\v 5 Yahweh says this about the prophets
|
||
|
|
\q who make my people wander:
|
||
|
|
\q "For those who feed them
|
||
|
|
\q they announce, 'There will be prosperity.'
|
||
|
|
\q But for those who put nothing in their mouths,
|
||
|
|
\q they announce war against him.
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 6 Therefore, it will be night for you with no vision for you;
|
||
|
|
\q it will be dark so that you will do no divination.
|
||
|
|
\q The sun will go down on the prophets,
|
||
|
|
\q and the day will be dark on them.
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 7 The seers will be put to shame,
|
||
|
|
\q and the diviners will be confused.
|
||
|
|
\q All of them will cover their lips,
|
||
|
|
\q for there is no answer from me."
|
||
|
|
|

|
\s5
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 8 But as for me, I am full of power by the Spirit of Yahweh,
|
||
|
|
\q and am full of justice and might,
|
||
|
|
\q to declare to Jacob his transgression,
|
||
|
|
\q and to Israel his sin.

\v 9 Now listen to this,
|
||
|
|
\q you leaders of the house of Jacob,
|
||
|
|
\q and rulers of the house of Israel,
|
||
|
|
\q you who detest justice,
|
||
|
|
\q and pervert everything right.
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 10 You build Zion with blood
|
||
|
|
\q and Jerusalem with iniquity.
|
||
|
|
\q
|
||
|
|
\v 11 Your leaders judge for a bribe,
|
||
|
|
\q your priests teach for a price,
|
||
|
|
\q and your prophets do divination for money.
|
||
|
|
\q Yet you rely on Yahweh and say,
|
||
|
|
\q "Is not Yahweh with us?
|
||
|
|
\q No evil will come on us."
|

\q
|

|
|
\v 12 Therefore, because of you,
|
||
|
|
\q Zion will be plowed like a field,
|
||
|
|
\q Jerusalem will be a heap of ruins,
|
||
|
|
\q and the hill of the temple will be like a forested hill.
