For what hope does the godless person have when he is cut off,
when God takes away his life?
For the wicked one boasts about his own cravings;
the one who is greedy curses[fn] and despises the LORD.
Such are the paths of all who make profit dishonestly;
it takes the lives of those who receive it.[fn]
The one who profits dishonestly troubles his household,
but the one who hates bribes will live.
But when the Lord finishes all his work against Mount Zion and Jerusalem, he will say, “I[fn] will punish the king of Assyria for his arrogant acts and the proud look in his eyes.”
My dwelling is plucked up and removed from me
like a shepherd’s tent.
I have rolled up my life like a weaver;
he cuts me off from the loom.
By nightfall[fn] you make an end of me.
For from the least to the greatest of them,
everyone is making profit dishonestly.
From prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
“Therefore, I will give their wives to other men,
their fields to new occupants,
for from the least to the greatest,
everyone is making profit dishonestly.
From prophet to priest,
everyone deals falsely.
The LORD has done what he planned;
he has accomplished his decree,
which he ordained in days of old.
He has demolished without compassion,
letting the enemy gloat over you
and exalting the horn of your adversaries.
“People who live in you accept bribes in order to shed blood. You take interest and profit on a loan and brutally extort your neighbors. You have forgotten me. This is the declaration of the Lord GOD.
“Her officials within her are like wolves tearing their prey, shedding blood, and destroying lives in order to make profit dishonestly.
They do not push each other;
each proceeds on his own path.
They dodge the arrows, never stopping.
I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said:
Strike the capitals of the pillars
so that the thresholds shake;
knock them down on the heads of all the people.
Then I will kill the rest of them with the sword.
None of those who flee will get away;
none of the fugitives will escape.
Woe to him who dishonestly makes
wealth for his house[fn]
to place his nest on high,
to escape the grasp of disaster!
