1 Then|strong="H0853" I|strong="H3045" said|strong="H0559", “Listen|strong="H8085", leaders|strong="H7218" of|strong="H1004" Jacob|strong="H3290" and|strong="H3478" officers of|strong="H1004" the|strong="H0853" nation|strong="H1004" of|strong="H1004" Israel|strong="H3478"!
2 But|strong="H5921" you|strong="H5921" hate|strong="H8130" good|strong="H2896" and|strong="H0157" love|strong="H0157" evil|strong="H7451".
3 You|strong="H0834" are|strong="H0834" destroying my|strong="H5921" people|strong="H5971".
4 Then|strong="H0227" you|strong="H0834" will|strong="H3068" pray|strong="H2199" to|strong="H0413" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068",
5 Some|strong="H5971" false prophets|strong="H5030" are|strong="H0834" telling|strong="H0559" lies|strong="H0834" to|strong="H0559" the|strong="H0853" Lord’s|strong="H3068" people|strong="H5971". This|strong="H3541" is|strong="H0834" what|strong="H0834" the|strong="H0853" LORD|strong="H3068" says|strong="H0559" about|strong="H5921" them|strong="H5414":
6 “This|strong="H3651" is|strong="H3117" why|strong="H3651" it|strong="H5921" is|strong="H3117" like|strong="H3651" night|strong="H3915" for|strong="H5921" you|strong="H5921"
7 The|strong="H3605" seers|strong="H2374" are|strong="H0430" ashamed|strong="H0954".
8 But|strong="H0199" the|strong="H0853" LORD’S|strong="H3068" Spirit|strong="H7307" has|strong="H3068" filled|strong="H4390" me|strong="H5046"
9 Leaders|strong="H7218" of|strong="H1004" Jacob|strong="H3290" and|strong="H3478" rulers|strong="H7101" of|strong="H1004" Israel|strong="H3478", listen|strong="H8085" to|strong="H3478" me|strong="H4994"!
10 You|strong="H6726" build|strong="H1129" Zion|strong="H6726" by|strong="H3389" murdering people|strong="H1818".
11 The|strong="H0559" judges|strong="H8199" in|strong="H5921" Jerusalem accept bribes|strong="H7810"
12 Leaders, because|strong="H3651" of|strong="H1004" you|strong="H3651", Zion|strong="H6726" will|strong="H1961" be|strong="H1961" destroyed.
