1 Woe to her who is filthy and polluted, to the oppressing city!
2 She has not obeyed the voice, she has not receive correction; she has not trusted in the LORD, she has not drawn near to her God.
3 Her princes in her midst are roaring lions; her judges are evening wolves that do not gnaw away the bones until the next day.
4 Her prophets are fickle and treacherous people; her priests have polluted the sanctuary, they have done violence to the law.
5 The just LORD is in the midst of it, He will do no iniquity. Every morning He brings His justice to light; He does not fail, but the unjust knows no shame.
6 “I have cut off nations, their towers are desolate; I made their streets a wasteland, so that no one passes by. Their cities are destroyed, so that there is no one, that there is no inhabitant.
7 I said, ‘Surely you shall fear Me, You will receive instruction’; so their dwelling would not be cut off, no matter how I punished them, they nevertheless rose early and corrupted all their deeds.
8 “Therefore wait for Me,” Says the Lord, “Until the day I rise up to the prey; My determination is to gather the nations that I may assemble the kingdoms, to pour on them My indignation, even all My fierce anger; because, all the earth will be devoured with the fire of My jealousy.
9 “Because, then I will return to the people a pure language, that they all may call on the name of the LORD, to serve Him with one accord.
10 From beyond the rivers of Ethiopia My seekers, even the daughter of My dispersed, will bring My offering.
