1. Woe to her that is rebellious and polluted, to the oppressing city!
2. She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God.
3. Her princes in the midst of her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they leave nothing till the morrow.
4. Her prophets are light and treacherous persons: her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
5. The Lord in the midst of her is righteous; he will not do iniquity; every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.
6. I have cut off nations, their battlements are desolate; I have made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.
