6
“ ‘See how each of the princes of Israel who are in you uses his power to shed blood.
7
In you they have treated father and mother with contempt; in you they have oppressed the foreigner and mistreated the fatherless and the widow.
8
You have despised my holy things and desecrated my Sabbaths.
9
In you are slanderers who are bent on shedding blood; in you are those who eat at the mountain shrines and commit lewd acts.
10
In you are those who dishonor their father’s bed; in you are those who violate women during their period, when they are ceremonially unclean.
11
In you one man commits a detestable offense with his neighbor’s wife, another shamefully defiles his daughter-in-law, and another violates his sister, his own father’s daughter.
12
In you are people who accept bribes to shed blood; you take interest and make a profit from the poor. You extort unjust gain from your neighbors. And you have forgotten me, declares the Sovereign LORD.
