23:003:005 And the people shall be oppressed, every one by another, and every one by his neighbour: the child shall behave himself proudly against the ancient, and the base against the honourable.
23:003:006 When a man shall take hold of his brother of the house of his
father, saying, Thou hast clothing, be thou our ruler, and let
this ruin be under thy hand:
23:003:007 In that day shall he swear, saying, I will not be an healer;
for in my house is neither bread nor clothing: make me not a
ruler of the people.
23:003:008 For Jerusalem is ruined, and Judah is fallen: because their
tongue and their doings are against the LORD, to provoke the
eyes of his glory.
23:003:009 The shew of their countenance doth witness against them; and
they declare their sin as Sodom, they hide it not. Woe unto
their soul! for they have rewarded evil unto themselves.
23:003:010 Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him: for
they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
23:003:011 Woe unto the wicked! it shall be ill with him: for the reward
of his hands shall be given him.
23:003:012 As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths.
23:003:013 The LORD standeth up to plead, and standeth to judge the people.
23:003:014 The LORD will enter into judgment with the ancients of his people, and the princes thereof: for ye have eaten up the vineyard; the spoil of the poor is in your houses.
