1 “Woe [to] those decreeing decrees of iniquity, || And writers who have prescribed perverseness, 2 Of My people, || That widows may be their prey, || That they may spoil the fatherless. 3 And what do you do at a day of inspection? And at desolation that comes from afar? Near whom do you flee for help? And where do you leave your glory? 4 It has bowed down without Me || In the place of a bound one, || And they fall in the place of the slain.” With all this His anger has not turned back, || And His hand is still stretched out. 5 “Woe [to] Asshur, a rod of My anger, || And My indignation [is] a staff in their hand. 6 I send him against a profane nation, || And concerning a people of My wrath || I charge him, || To spoil spoil, and to seize prey, || And to make it a treading-place as the clay of out places.
