1. Righteous people die,and no one cares.Loyal people are taken away,and no one understands.Righteous people are spared when evil comes.
2. When peace comes,everyone who has lived honestly will rest on his own bed.
3. But you—come here,you children of witches,you descendants of adulterers and prostitutes!
4. Whom are you making fun of?Whom are you making a face at?Whom are you sticking out your tongue at?Aren’t you rebellious children,descendants of liars?
5. You burn with lust under oak treesand under every large tree.You slaughter children in the valleysand under the cracks in the rocks.
