You buy poor people to make slaves out of them.
    You buy those who are in need for a mere pair of sandals.
    You even sell the worthless parts of your wheat.

People of Jacob, you are proud that the Lord is your God. But he has made a promise in his own name. He says, “I will never forget anything Israel has done.

“The land will tremble because of what will happen.

So the whole land will rise like the Nile River.
    It will be stirred up.
Then it will settle back down again
    like that river in Egypt.”
