9 Now hear this,
You heads of the house of Jacob
And rulers of the house of Israel,
Who abhor justice
And [a]pervert all equity,
10 (A)Who build up Zion with (B)bloodshed
And Jerusalem with iniquity:
11 (C)Her heads judge for a bribe,
(D)Her priests teach for pay,
And her prophets divine for [b]money.
(E)Yet they lean on the Lord, and say,
“Is not the Lord among us?
No harm can come upon us.”
