6. Behold, the princes of Israel, each one in you used his power to shed blood.
7. In you have they made light of father and mother: in the midst of you have they dealt by oppression with the stranger: in you have they wronged the fatherless and the widow.
8. You have despised my holy things, and have profaned my sabbaths.
9. In you are men that slander to shed blood: and in you they eat upon the mountains: in the midst of you they commit lewdness.
10. In you have they uncovered their fathers' nakedness: in you have they violated her that was set apart for her impurity.
11. And one has committed abomination with his neighbor's wife; and another has lewdly defiled his daughter-in-law; and another in you has violated his sister, his father's daughter.
12. In you have they taken bribes to shed blood; you have taken interest and increase, and you have greedily gained from your neighbors by extortion, and have forgotten me, says the Lord GOD.
13. Behold, therefore I have struck my hands together at your dishonest gain which you have made, and at your blood which has been in the midst of you.
14. Can your heart endure, or can your hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with you? I the LORD have spoken it, and will do it.
15. And I will scatter you among the nations, and disperse you in the countries, and will consume your filthiness out of you.
16. And you shall defile yourself in the sight of the nations, and you shall know that I am the LORD.
