Jeremiah 5:27-29
Tree of Life Version
Jeremiah 5:27-29
Tree of Life Version
27 As a cage is full of birds,
so are their houses full of deceit.
That is why they grew great and rich.
28 They grew fat and sleek.
They also overlooked evil deeds.
They do not uphold a cause
—the cause of an orphan to prosper—
nor do they defend the right of the poor.
29 Should I not punish them?” says Adonai.
“On such a nation
should I not avenge Myself?

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?
