23 who declare the guilty innocent for a bribe,
    who take away the rights of righteous people.

The Lord Will Use Another Nation to Punish His People

24 As flames burn up straw
    and dry grass shrivels in flames,
        so their roots will rot,
            and their blossoms will blow away like dust.
    They have rejected the teachings of Yahweh Tsebaoth
    and have despised the word of Qedosh Yisrael.

25 That’s why the anger of Yahweh burns hot against his people,
    and he is ready to use his power to strike them down.
    The hills tremble,
    and dead bodies lie like garbage in the streets.

Even after all this, his anger has not disappeared,
    and he is still ready to use his power.
