Judgment against Wealthy Oppressors

What sorrow awaits you who lie awake at night,
    thinking up evil plans.
You rise at dawn and hurry to carry them out,
    simply because you have the power to do so.

    you take it by fraud and violence.
You cheat a man of his property,
    stealing his family’s inheritance.
