for wicked men live among My people. They watch like fowlers lying in wait. They set a trap; they catch men.Like a cage full of birds, so their houses are full of deceit. Therefore they have grown powerful and rich.They have become fat and sleek. They have also excelled in evil matters. They have not taken up cases, such as the case of the fatherless, so they might prosper, and they have not defended the rights of the needy.Should I not punish them for these things? This is the Lord’s declaration. Should I not avenge Myself on such a nation as this?
