19If ye be willing and obedient, Ye shall consume the good of the land.
20But if ye refuse, and be rebellious, The sword shall consume you; For the mouth of Jehovah hath said it.
21How is the faithful city become a harlot, She that was full of equity! Once justice dwelt in her, but now murderers!
22Thy silver is become dross; Thy wine is adulterated with water.
23Thy princes are faithless, companions of thieves; Every one of them loveth gifts, and seeketh rewards; They render not justice to the fatherless, And the cause of the widow cometh not before them.
24Wherefore, thus saith the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, the Mighty One of Israel: Ha! I will ease me of mine adversaries, And avenge me of mine enemies.
