1. Woe to her that is rebellious and defiled, to the oppressing city!
2. She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the LORD; she drew not near to her God.
3. Her princes within her are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves; they leave not a bone till the morning.
4. Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous persons: her priests have profaned the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
5. The just LORD is in her midst; he will do no wrong: every morning does he bring his judgment to light, he fails not; but the unjust knows no shame.
