1Woe to her who is rebellious and polluted, the oppressing city!2 She didnt obey the voice. She didnt receive correction. She didnt trust in Yahweh. She didnt draw near to her God.3 Her princes within her are roaring lions. Her judges are evening wolves. They leave nothing until the next day.4 Her prophets are arrogant and treacherous people. Her priests have profaned the sanctuary. They have done violence to the law.5 Yahweh, within her, is righteous. He will do no wrong. Every morning he brings his justice to light. He doesnt fail, but the unjust know no shame.6 I have cut off nations. Their battlements are desolate. I have made their streets waste, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no man, so that there is no inhabitant.7 I said, Just fear me. Receive correction, so that her dwelling wont be cut off, according to all that I have appointed concerning her. But they rose early and corrupted all their doings.8 Therefore wait for me, says Yahweh, until the day that I rise up to the prey, for my determination is to gather the nations, that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour on them my indignation, even all my fierce anger, for all the earth will be devoured with the fire of my jealousy.
