V.1 And I said, 559-4 Hear, 8085-3 I pray you, O heads 7218 of Jacob, 3290 and ye princes 7101 of the house 1004 of Israel; 3478 [Is it] not for you to know 3045-2 judgment? 4941

3:2 Who hate 8130-6 the good, 2896 and love 157-6 the evil; 7451 who pluck off 1497-6 their skin 5785 from off them, and their flesh 7607 from off their bones; 6106

3:3 Who also eat 398-1 the flesh 7607 of my people, 5971 and flay 6584-52 their skin 5785 from off them; and they break 6476-14 their bones, 6106 and chop them in pieces, 6566-1 as for the pot, 5518 and as flesh 1320 within 8432 the caldron. 7037

3:4 Then shall they cry 2199-4 unto the LORD, 3068 but he will not hear 6030-4 them: he will even hide 5641-55 his face 6440 from them at that time, 6256 as they have behaved themselves ill 7489-52 in their doings. 4611

3:5 Thus saith 559-1 the LORD 3068 concerning the prophets 5030 that make my people 5971 err, 8582-56 that bite 5391-6 with their teeth, 8127 and cry, 7121-1 Peace; 7965 and he that putteth 5414-4 not into their mouths, 6310 they even prepare 6942-14 war 4421 against him.

3:6 Therefore night 3915 [shall be] unto you, that ye shall not have a vision; 2377 and it shall be dark 2821-1|2821-q unto you, that ye shall not divine; 7080-2 and the sun 8121 shall go down 935-1 over the prophets, 5030 and the day 3117 shall be dark 6937-1 over them.

3:7 Then shall the seers 2374 be ashamed, 954-1 and the diviners 7080-6 confounded: 2659-1 yea, they shall all cover 5844-1 their lips; 8222 for [there is] no answer 4617 of God. 430

3:8 But truly 199 I am full 4390-1 of power 3581 by the spirit 7307 of the LORD, 3068 and of judgment, 4941 and of might, 1369 to declare 5046-53 unto Jacob 3290 his transgression, 6588 and to Israel 3478 his sin. 2403

3:9 Hear 8085-3 this, I pray you, ye heads 7218 of the house 1004 of Jacob, 3290 and princes 7101 of the house 1004 of Israel, 3478 that abhor 8581-18 judgment, 4941 and pervert 6140-17 all equity. 3477

3:10 They build up 1129-6 Zion 6726 with blood, 1818 and Jerusalem 3389 with iniquity. 5766

3:11 The heads 7218 thereof judge 8199-4 for reward, 7810 and the priests 3548 thereof teach 3384-55 for hire, 4242 and the prophets 5030 thereof divine 7080-4 for money: 3701 yet will they lean 8172-11 upon the LORD, 3068 and say, 559-2 [Is] not the LORD 3068 among 7130 us? none evil 7451 can come 935-4 upon us.
