The LORD will enter into judgment with the elders of his people, and their leaders: *It is you who have eaten up the vineyard. The spoil of the poor is in your houses.
Righteous are you, LORD, when I contend with you; yet would I reason the cause with you: why does the way of the wicked prosper? why are all they at ease who deal very treacherously?
He cried with a mighty voice, saying, *Fallen, fallen is Bavel the great, and she has become a habitation of demons, a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird!
