Jeremiah 5:27-29

Revised Standard Version

²⁷ Like a basket full of birds,
    their houses are full of treachery;
therefore they have become great and rich,
²⁸     they have grown fat and sleek.
They know no bounds in deeds of wickedness;
    they judge not with justice
the cause of the fatherless, to make it prosper,
    and they do not defend the rights of the needy.
²⁹ Shall I not punish them for these things?
                says the Lord,
    and shall I not avenge myself
    on a nation such as this?”
