10 Who (A)build Zion with bloodshed,
And Jerusalem with malice.
11 Her leaders pronounce (B)judgment for a bribe,
Her (C)priests teach for pay,
And her prophets divine for money.
Yet they lean on the Lord, saying,
(D)Is the Lord not in our midst?
Catastrophe will not come upon us.”
12 Therefore on account of you,
(E)Zion will be plowed like a field,
(F)Jerusalem will become a heap of ruins,
And the (G)mountain of the [a]temple will become high places of a forest.
