|---|---|---|
Her prophets [are] light [and] treacherous persons: her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
|
The just LORD [is] in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.
|
I have cut off the nations: their towers are desolate; I made their streets waste, that none passeth by: their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, that there is none inhabitant.
