12 O house of David; thus says the Lord:

Execute justice each morning,
    and deliver him who has been robbed
    from the hand of the oppressor,
lest My fury go out like fire
    and burn so that no one can quench it,
    because of the evil of your deeds.
13 See, I am against you,
    O inhabitant of the valley,
    O rocky plain,
    says the Lord,
you men who say,
    “Who shall come down against us?
    Or who shall enter our dwellings?”
14 But I will punish you
    according to the fruit of your deeds,
    says the Lord,
and I will kindle a fire in the forest,
    and it will devour all things around it.
