Judgment on Jerusalem’s Wickedness

1

Woe to her that is filthie and polluted, to the robbing citie.

2

She heard not the voyce: she receiued not correction: she trusted not in the Lord: she drew not neere to her God.

3

Her princes within her are as roaring lyons: her iudges are as wolues in the euening, which leaue not the bones till the morow.

4

Her prophets are light, and wicked persons: her priests haue polluted the Sanctuarie: they haue wrested the Lawe.

5

The iust Lord is in the middes thereof: he will doe none iniquitie: euery morning doeth hee bring his iudgement to light, he faileth not: but the wicked will not learne to be ashamed.

6

I haue cut off the nations: their towres are desolate: I haue made their streetes waste, that none shall passe by: their cities are destroyed without man and without inhabitant.

7

I said, Surely thou wilt feare me: thou wilt receiue instruction: so their dwelling shoulde not be destroyed howsoeuer I visited them, but they rose earely and corrupted all their workes.
