23And this people hath an apostate and rebellious heart, They have turned aside, and they go on.
24And they have not said in their heart, `Let us fear, we pray you, Jehovah our God, who is giving rain, The sprinkling and the gathered, in its season, The appointed weeks of harvest He keepeth for us.`
25Your iniquities have turned these away, And your sins have kept the good from you.
26For the wicked have been found among My people. It looketh about the covering of snares, They have set up a trap -- men they capture.
27As a cage full of fowls, So their houses are full of deceit, Therefore they have been great, and are rich.
28They have been fat, they have shone, Yea, they have overpassed the acts of the evil, Judgment they have not judged, The judgment of the fatherless -- and they prosper, And the judgment of the needy they have not judged.
29For these do not I inspect, an affirmation of Jehovah, On a nation such as this, Doth not My soul avenge itself?
