1. And I said:Hear, you leaders of Jacob,rulers of the house of Israel!Is it not your duty to know what is right,
2. you who hate what is good, and love evil?You who tear their skin from them,and their flesh from their bones;
3. Who eat the flesh of my people,flay their skin from them,and break their bones;Who chop them in pieces like flesh in a kettle,like meat in a pot.
4. When they cry to the Lord,he will not answer them;He will hide his face from them at that time,because of the evil they have done.
