Jeremiah 5:27
| ← Jeremiah 5:26 | Jeremiah 5:27 (KJV) | Jeremiah 5:28 → |
|---|---|---|
For among my people are found wicked [men]: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.
|
As a cage is full of birds, so [are] their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.
|
They are waxen fat, they shine: yea, they overpass the deeds of the wicked: they judge not the cause, the cause of the fatherless, yet they prosper; and the right of the needy do they not judge.
