Jerusalem Will Be Destroyed

How horrible it will be for that rebellious
    and corrupt place, the city of violence.
        It obeys no one.
        It does not accept correction.
        It does not trust Yahweh.
        It does not draw close to its Elohim.
        Its officials are like roaring lions.
        Its judges are like wolves in the evening.
            They leave nothing to gnaw on for the morning.
