Jeremiah 5:27-29
21st Century King James Version
27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit; therefore they have become great and have waxed rich.
28 They have waxed fat, they shine; yea, they surpass 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.
29 Shall I not visit for these things?” saith the Lord. “Shall not My soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

Jeremiah 5:27-29
New International Version
27 Like cages full of birds,
their houses are full of deceit;(A)
they have become rich(B) and powerful
28 and have grown fat(C) and sleek.
Their evil deeds have no limit;
they do not seek justice.
They do not promote the case of the fatherless;(D)
they do not defend the just cause of the poor.(E)
29 Should I not punish them for this?”
declares the Lord.
“Should I not avenge(F) myself
on such a nation as this?
