For Jerusalem is ruined,
_and Judah is fallen,
_because their tongues
_and their doings have been against the Lord,
_to provoke the eyes of his glory.
The show of their countenance doth witness against them,
_and doth declare their sin to be even as Sodom,
_and they cannot hide it. Wo unto their souls,
_for they have rewarded evil unto themselves!
Say unto the righteous that it is well with them;
_for they shall eat the fruit of their doings.
Wo unto the wicked,
_for they shall perish;
_for the reward of their hands shall be upon them!
And my people,
_children are their oppressors,
_and women rule over them. O my people,
_they who lead thee cause thee to err
_and destroy the way of thy paths.
