“Listen, you leaders^(A) of Jacob,
    you rulers of Israel.
Should you not embrace justice,
²     you who hate good and love evil;
who tear the skin from my people
    and the flesh from their bones;^(B)
3 who eat my people’s flesh,^(C)
    strip off their skin
    and break their bones in pieces;^(D)
who chop^(E) them up like meat for the pan,
    like flesh for the pot?^(F)”

¹¹ Her leaders judge for a bribe,^(A)
    her priests teach for a price,^(B)
    and her prophets tell fortunes for money.^(C)
Yet they look^(D) for the Lord’s support and say,
    “Is not the Lord among us?
    No disaster will come upon us.”^(E)
